			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We are happy to introduce <strong>Andrew &amp; Jodie Martin</strong>, who joined us August 1st. Andrew is our new Middle School Pastor. Here&#8217;s a message from him:</p>
<blockquote><p><img style="float: right;" src="http://cl.ly/95AM/martins.jpg" alt="Andrew &amp; Jodie Martin" width="250" />Hey everyone!  Well I have been living in Oregon for 3 days, enjoying the sun&#8230;everyone tells me it&#8217;s always like this, so that&#8217;s exciting! But I just wanted to introduce myself and tell you a little about me.</p>
<p>I have been a youth pastor in California for the past 8 years.  My relationship with Pastor Joel goes all the way back to the mid-90&#8242;s when I was a student in Joel&#8217;s first youth group.  He has been an amazing friend and mentor to me over the years.  My wife Jodie and I were both born and raised in Northern California, in the Bay Area, but had to go all the way to Los Angeles to meet each other, while attending Biola University.</p>
<p>I grew up a Pastor&#8217;s Kid, and I first felt the call to go into full time youth ministry after college when I was living in Mozambique working at an orphanage and teaching at a Bible College.  After I came home I became a volunteer in the middle school youth group at the church I grew up in.  I have been working in ministry ever since.  I love hanging out with students, teaching, discipling, and just building relationships and being involved in the lives of kids.</p>
<p>I enjoy basketball, baseball, college football, ultimate frisbee, coffee, breakfast, lunch, dinner, Monster energy drinks, reading, fishing, Chipotle and listening to music. I also have an 1 year old Siberian Husky named Posey who only has two working legs.</p>
<p>My wife and I are so excited to be here and be a part of the Willamette Christian family, and work with the middle school students and their families!  We can&#8217;t wait to meet you!</p></blockquote>
<p>-Andrew</p>
