Pastor Jared Schiller
Kids Pastor
Kids Pastor
Pastor Jared was born in Anchorage, Alaska but grew up in a small town in Wisconsin where he was an active part of his local church’s worship team and youth group. Following high school, he studied at City on a Hill College in Milwaukee, WI before transferring to Florida School of Discipleship, where he studied both in-class and hands-on for three years.
During his time in Florida, he met his beautiful wife, Julie, who besides being the love of his life has also been a great helpmate throughout their ministry journey together. Julie is a fantastic mother to their four children, Adelyn, Isaiah, Easton and Ana.
Growing up, Pastor Jared had always wrestled with a call to full-time, vocational ministry. But after working in a local print shop, he knew there was something missing. He decided to accept an internship in Kids Ministry and that is where he felt the Lord calling him to serve full time. A short time later, The Rock Church invited them to move to Tennessee and become full time kids pastors. Uncertain of themselves but confident God was opening a door, they made the move. Pastor Jared is an ordained minister with the Assemblies of God, and they have now served as Kids Pastors for 9 years. Pastor Jared and Julie say, “We love it and cannot picture ourselves anywhere else. We know this is where God has called us.”
