Jeri Templeton | Elementary Coordinator
Every Sunday I have the privilege of sharing Jesus with our elementary aged children. I also have a blast getting to lead our Vacation Bible School each summer! God knows I enjoy being silly and having fun while encouraging kids to love and follow Jesus. I am married to a wonderful man, Bill and we have 3 beautiful daughters. I am a Colorado native and enjoy spending time in the mountains every season of the year. I like to be around people, especially my family and friends. I love just about anything chocolate and I am a huge Denver Broncos fan.

Tim and I have been married 30+ years and have two grown children, Amanda and Nathan. My most important calling was, and still is, being a MOM to my children! Because of my huge love for kids, I knew early on that God was calling me into a ministry with children. I have the great pleasure of partnering with parents, here at LifePointe Church, as they lead and guide their children’s spiritual formation and, ultimately, into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ. A few of my favorite things in life are: reading a good book, drinking a great cup of coffee, hearing babies laugh, and spending time with my family!

I am so thankful God has loved me first! I discovered His steadfast love for me in 1988 when I entered into a trusting relationship with Jesus Christ. God has been so gracious to me over the years, leading me to marrying my beautiful wife, Rhonda in 1995. We have 3 outstanding daughters, Olivia, Emma and Jamie that we are crazy about. I have been on staff with LifePointe Church since 2004 and I love the people in our church, our neighborhood and the city of Fort Collins. People matter to me, and I love seeing them come alive to the gospel of Jesus Christ. As a Colorado native, I love the outdoors, hunting, camping, fishing, backpacking, eating outside…anything outside! I would love to meet you!
