Meet Our Small Group Leaders

AARON + CANDACE HAGEN, Small Groups Coordinators
Neighborhood: Bryant | Thursdays at 7:15pm
Aaron is an original born and raised Seattleite and Candace is from Calgary, Canada. They love living in and exploring Seattle with their son and have another son on the way! They know how hard it can be to connect with others in Seattle and want to provide a fun and safe place to grow in God and with one another! At this group you can expect to be listened to, encouraged, and to dig into what it means to love and follow Jesus. We look forward to meeting you!

NW SEATTLE
KEVIN + GINA KIM
Neighborhood: Fremont/Ballard | Wednesdays at 7pm
As recent transplants from the Northeast we are grateful that God has so quickly provided a place we can call home in ASC. We hope to be a group that can extend the same challenging, support, encouragement, and love that we have so graciously received. All are welcome!
SOUTH LAKE UNION
BONNIE + KEN PODDANY
Neighborhood: Cascade | Wednesdays at 7pm
As both of us love exploring, we have been living in so many different parts of the world. It has been almost 2 years since we moved to Seattle. We love the South Lake Union area, as we can meet lots of people from all over the world. Whether you are married or single, young or not, from here or afar, if you are looking for authentic relationships to grow together as brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ, you are SO invited! We're looking forward to meeting you!"
NORTHEND
KENNY + CLARISSA MA
Neighborhood: Shoreline | Sundays at 11:15am, after ASC online gathering
Originally from Canada and Hong Kong, we moved to Seattle over a decade ago for Kenny to work at a local tech company. We are parents to three bespectacled little boys, and we truly know what disconnectedness and loneliness in Seattle can feel like. It's our great joy to welcome those hoping to grow deeper in connection with each other and with Jesus to our group. We are a warm and friendly bunch who look forward to meeting you!
NW SEATTLE
RACHEL LOCK
Neighborhood: Bitter Lake | Sundays at 11:15am, after ASC online gathering
We are a group of young women learning how to follow Jesus together. Our time together often looks like building friendship by reflecting on scripture, sharing about our lives, and praying for one another and our communities.
