Stephen Steele

Steve came to Oak Tree with 10 years of experience in youth ministry, and man, does it show.  Steve is the senior servant leader and primary teaching pastor at Oak Tree.  He loves God, his wife – Nicole, three daughters – Elizabeth, Rebekah, and Hannah, and Diet Pepsi (in that order). (OK, he loves his daughters all the same, but you know what I mean.)

Rick Miller

Rick comes to Oak Tree with over 20 years of youth ministry experience (trumping Pastor Steve).  And he has three reasons why he came to be a part of Oak Tree. (Just ask him!)  Rick serves where he is needed most.  Currently, he leads our worship team, heads up youth ministry, and solves any problems Steve can’t figure out.  Rick loves God, his wife – Brenda, his son – Jeremiah, and his BMW motorcycle (in that order).

Kathy Imboden

Kathy was never in youth ministry, but all of her sons have served there, so she’s cool, too.  Kathy and her husband, John, have a passion for kids and so do we at Oak Tree.  Kathy loves God, her husband – John, her sons – Zach, Josh, and Paul, and new daughters to the family – Anne and Carrie (in that order).

Allison Cauton

God brought Allison to us. Allison serves as our youth intern because we simply refused to let her go. She came four summers ago to help a friend lead our youth ministry, and we decided she couldn’t leave after the summer was over. Allison spends her time going to Sac State, giving piano lessons, and being glued to her iPhone, texting and Tweeting. Allison loves God, her mom and dad, Bagel (her pet Beagle), and “The Circle” of her group of friends.
