Let me say first and for most, Christ has freed me! I have been taken to a whole new level by his Love, Mercy and Grace. He has blessed me with a wife for almost 15 yrs that I am more in love with then ever! I have two amazing Children- 16 and 13 – love you guys! My passion is to see Young Adults engaged and leading in the Church. God has given us this gift called life and I work hard to praise him for it and say to all of you- LETS GET BUSY LIVING IT!

Ann Hanson Director of worship & music ministries
I have been attending ICN for almost 19 years and have been a part of the music ministry for all of those years. However, it was particularly exciting to hear God's call to come on staff as Director of Worship and Music in 2009. After being a stay-at-home mom for 15 years, my girls (Becca, now a senior at Christopher Dock Mennonite High School; and Kirsten, now a junior at Plumstead Christian School) were headed off to high school. As I was praying for new direction about how to spend my days with them both in school, God began to open doors into a whole new level of ministry. I have no greater privilege than to lead in worship each Sunday.
I am also involved as a teacher of our Wednesday Nite Journey classes where I am passionate about sharing the message of holiness and what it means to be a part of the ICN family. I'm convinced that there is no greater joy than walking out a life fully surrendered to Christ in the company of other believers who long to take as many people to heaven with them as possible!
