KariAn was born in Albany and grew up in Lebanon, Oregon. KariAn and her husband, Andy, have been married since 1997. She ended up at Calvary because her family liked the verse by verse teaching of the Bible. She started regularly attending in 2002. KariAn enjoys numbers and teaches math, so she is excited to come on staff as our accountant. She joined our staff in January 2025, but has previously volunteered with children's ministry, and is currently volunteering with the media team on Sunday mornings. They love that both of their children grew up at Calvary and are now actively involved in their own ministries. In her free time, KariAn enjoys playing games with her family, reading, and hiking. Her life Bible verse is Psalm 46:10, "Be still and know that I am God."
