A Young Adult Grill-Out

Calling all Collin County young adults. Summer’s here!

We thought you deserved a little party for making it through a crazy year! Whether you’ve just graduated (from high school or college) or just working like crazy for the first half of the year, you deserve a little fun! So we’re throwing a simple summer grill-out and inviting everyone to join us!

We’ll have burgers, hot dogs, and pulled pork along with some simple sides, but feel free to bring something to slap on the grill!

There will also be yard games, music, probably some Ultimate Frisbee, and lots of places to hang out and meet new friends!

Mark your calendar and come hang out with us. It’s going to be awesome!

Ken Leaman

Ken Leaman has a passion for students, and for over 30 years has been volunteering within churches and other ministries, leading and mentoring students. These churches are:

Stonebriar Community Church in Frisco, TX where Chuck Swindoll is the senior pastor
First Church of God in Hanover, PA

Ken works for Amazon Web Services as a Support Operations Manager. Ken has also served on the boards of other non-profits like the DFW Technology Prayer Breakfast, and the DFW Help Desk Institute.

Ken, and his wife Karen, have been married for 31 years, and have a 30 year old son. They live in Allen, TX, just North of Dallas.

As Ken and Karen repeatedly witnessed many Christian students who were active within the Church walk away from their faith shortly after graduating high school, they grew frustrated. Studies show that about 70% of young adults leave their faith after graduation, which is a huge issue since they are the future of the Church. After much prayer and searching God's direction for many years, the Leaman's felt His calling to start a ministry to address this problem. In 2014, they gathered like minded Christian professionals to help begin Young Adults of Worth Ministries. We believe that this ministry is from God, and it will be blessed by Him for His glory alone.
