Staff/Ministry Directors

Cory Mannen, Youth Director

Cory has been a part of WCF since he was a freshman in high school. He became a Christian through the youth ministry under John Metko.

Cory attended Multnomah Bible College for four years, where he studied Bible and theology, pastoral ministries and intercultural ministries. He volunteered with the WCF youth group for four years- while attending Multnomah- and then interned under Cary for a year before officially joining the staff.

Cory desires to see kids learn more about God so they can love and worship Him more. Some of his spiritual gifts are leadership, teaching and serving. He also leads the youth group worship team.

Pennee Kerr, Women's Ministry Director

Pennee Kerr has been serving women in ministry since 1980. She has been serving the women of south Columbia County through Warren Community Fellowship since 1990. Pennee has felt a real calling by God to minister to the unique needs of women, and has fulfilled this calling by providing dynamic Bible studies and opportunities for women to grow and share their faith.

Pennee has a real desire to see Godly women in their homes, relationships and the community. Her ministry is to disciple women, maturing them through the teaching of the Word of God.

Pennee has been married to her husband Tom since 1975, and enjoys boating, reading and spoiling her grandchildren.

Rachel Bair, Office Manager

Rachel has been actively involved at WCF since 1994.

Since she has been raising four children it was obvious to her to get involved in Children's and Youths Ministries earlier on, she is currently involved with the Youth Ministry. Following that she started volunteering her time in the WCF office. After 8 months the staff hired her to assist the Office Manager with various administrative tasks.

When the Office Manager position became vacant Rachel was offered and accepted the position in February of 2008 and is now currently performing those duties.

Rachel's love for music has also led to her serving in the Music Ministry playing her guitar and running the Video projection as needed.

Rachel was born and raised in New Zealand before moving to the United States where she met her husband Patrick.

They have four children and enjoy camping, traveling and spending time with family and friends. Her main hobby is playing the guitar.
