Engaging the Youth
Bo and Heather Ward with Elliott & Issac.
I (Bo) am honored and humbled to have been asked to work with the youth/teens here at Stanford Baptist. I have had a passion to work with young people from a young age. I have been married to my beautiful wife since 2017 and we have two wonderful boys Elliott (4) and Isaac (2) and we as a family are beyond excited to see what God has in store for our youth group.
