| | Greg & Mary Kay Wilson
I (Mary Kay) was born and raised in Seattle, Washington, the middle of three kids. My parents took us faithfully to a small, Episcopal church every Sunday, but it wasn't until I went away for college that I made a more informed and intentional decision to follow Jesus. During my freshman year, I was in a bible study for the first time in my life, and I also experienced a community of faith through the Inter Varsity Christian Fellowship group on campus. I was so impacted by God through that campus fellowship that I decided to join the staff when I graduated. Beginning first with the undergraduate fellowship, I later worked with the graduate students, finally supervising campus works throughout colleges and universities in Northern California.
I met Greg when he came to school as a graduate student. He hails from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the second of five brothers. He made a decision to follow Jesus at a Leighton Ford rally when he was in the 3rd grade. Greg and I got married in 1990; he finished his doctoral work in Aeronautics and Astronautics in 1992, and during the next few years, we added two girls to our family unit. We moved to Montana in 1996, had one more girl in 1997, and found God leading us to Christian Center. Greg is a design and research engineer at Semitool when he's not out fly fishing or hiking. Western landscape art has become a passion of his lately, so he can sometimes be found enjoying art museums and galleries. He has gifts in helps, discernment, and giving, and he enjoys helping out with the Sunday morning stage crew. He is a great dad, husband, and provider for us. I am excited to be part of the leadership team at Christian Center, bringing direction to the purpose of Ministry — helping every person discover giftedness, finding meaningful places of service, and celebrating God's activity to and through us. My gifts in teaching, leadership, and creative communication come into play as I lead the Equipping Team, work with Women's Ministry and Sunday Morning Drama. I love to read, travel, see live theatre, hike, bike and ski. As a family, we like to boat, cross-country ski, pick huckleberries, have family movie nights, and eat dinner together.
