Meet Your Youth Ministers

Carson & Ethan Brazell

Carson and Ethan Brazell are passionate about helping students know Jesus and grow in their faith. Both have followed the Lord for many years and have served in a variety of ministry roles before God brought them together.

As their relationship grew, they quickly realized God was calling them to serve in ministry as a team. Because both Carson and Ethan came to truly own their faith during their high school years, they have a special heart for teenagers. They understand the challenges students face as they navigate friendships, school, family, and discovering who God has created them to be.

Their desire is to create a Christ-centered community where every student is known, loved, and encouraged to develop a lasting relationship with Jesus. They are excited to partner with families as they help the next generation grow in faith and live on mission for Christ.

Our Hope

We want every student to feel seen, loved, and challenged to grow closer to Jesus. And we want you, as a parent, to feel supported and encouraged as you lead them through this important season of life.

“EC Students has been a safe place for our teenager to ask hard questions, make real friends, and grow in faith. We’re grateful for leaders who truly care about our family.”
