Marc Schlegel

Currently a seminary student at AMBS with a focus on urban development, I have spent the past few years in service and youth-work. Spending two years in West Virginia as a Service Adventure Leader before moving to Fresno, California to do community development and youth work at Mennonite Community Church. In Fresno, I discovered a passion for community work and building relationships with people on the margins. Finally, before coming to seminary, I spent a year developing an after school and summer program at a low-income housing complex in Albuquerque, New Mexico. I spent three summers leading worship at Camp Friedenswald as well as planning and leading Junior High worship at both the youth conventions in San Jose and Charlotte. I enjoy biking, watching the Huskers play football, playing Rook and Settlers, and coaching wrestling.
