Our staff members.
Ethan, Berlin, & Eliza Elgin
Ethan and Berlin Elgin are both graduates of Northwest who started working at the BSU in the Fall of 2017. Both Ethan and Berlin, who came to faith and were discipled through collegiate ministry, decided to leave Lawrence, Kansas, to come back to Northwest to plant the seed of the Gospel in the hearts of college students. Berlin leads the Outreach Teams, while Ethan leads Men’s Discipleship. Last year, they had a sweet daughter named Eliza who now does ministry right alongside them. Ethan enjoys spending time on woodworking projects, motorcycling, discussing current events and world issues, video games, books, working out, hand writing, and petting his bunny, Winnie. Ethan hates toll booths, olives, untapped potential in people, over explanation of any topic, the term “upbringing”, and only one pillow to sleep on at night. Berlin enjoys reading, East Africa, deep discussions, hot tea, wearing dresses, darkroom photography, and long hours cuddling Eliza. Berlin hates tangled hair, being without a nap when one is due, spelling the word bureaucracy, and making the bed in the morning (her husband does it for her).

Anna graduated from Northwest Missouri State University in April of 2017 with a major in Psychology and a minor in Child and Family Studies. She is originally from Omaha Nebraska but has grown to LOVE small-town Maryville. Anna came to Northwest in 2013 and was heavily involved in music until she felt God calling her to a life of ministry and Counseling. This is Anna’s second year on staff with the BSU. She is leading the Women’s Discipleship team as well as mentoring several girls in BSU. She is also pursuing her Masters in Christian Counseling and Play Therapy from Crown College in Minnesota! Anna has grown to love the BSU and the strong community atmosphere. She was a Life Group leader for her sophomore, junior, and senior year where God showed her the desire to help others through difficulties and crisis. Anna is excited to grow the Women’s Ministry at the BSU and connect with more students on the Northwest Campus! Anna loves cottage cheese, sunflowers, sushi, and caramel lattes!
