NIK & KRISTY HARRANG
Associate Pastor (Nik)


My name is Nik and I'm one of the associate pastors at ENCS where some of my responsibilities include overseeing many of the ministry areas of the church and occasionally teaching on Sundays.

I also work with Every Nation Campus Ministries and help oversee our ministry to college students in the Seattle area. I absolutely love to see people get plugged in; grow spiritually, emotionally, and intellectually; and then see them step into positions of leadership so they help others on their journey.



BASIC STUFF

My wife, Kristy, and I have been married since 2001. We have two children, Elise Joy and Joel Peter. Kristy and I met at a campus ministry training school in Los Angeles in 2000, and this girl from Northern California and boy from Oregon fell in love! We love serving together in the church, and enjoy living in the great city of Seattle.
