Ryan falls, Lead Pastor
Hi, I’m Ryan. I’m really glad you’re here.
Westminster Chapel is a community centered on Jesus and growing to listen and love like him. We’re a diverse church in the heart of the Eastside, shaped by many cultures, backgrounds, and life stories, and made up of people at all different places in their faith.
Whether you’re exploring faith, returning to church, or simply curious, you are truly welcome here. We would love for you to join us in worship, find meaningful community, and discover together how Jesus is at work among us.
You matter deeply to God.
Ryan is from the Suburbs of Detroit, Michigan and received his MDiv from the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, KY. He loves spending time with his family & their dogs, golfing and living in the PNW.
