Ryan Pahler came on staff with FCA in September of 2010 and serves as an Area Representative for the Central Coast.
Ryan gave his life to the Lord at a youth camp but started really living for Christ his first year of college. Ryan played football, soccer, and golf for San Luis Opispo high school and went on to get his degree in Recreation Administration with a minor in Communication Studies from Cal Poly.
During those years Ryan had the opportunity to serve in a variety of ministries. He was an active student leader in Young Life and was on volunteer staff for two years. Ryan has also served with the college ministry at Grace Church and is now their part time Middle School Ministry Director.
Feeling God’s calling to full time ministry, and with his love for sports, Ryan has accepted the opportunity to come on staff as an Area Rep. He will be working alongside Luke to help strengthen and grow the ministry with coaches and athletes in our area.
In 2008 Ryan served as a huddle leader at the FCA camp at UCSB and has been used by God to share his testimony and the gospel as a guest speaker at many of the high schools that have an FCA presence on the Central Coast.
Some of Ryan's hobbies include all sports and going on walks and hikes with his wife Emily.
