Calvin Wiens

As a teenager, Calvin spent his summers working at camp, which is where he first felt called to youth ministry. Calvin graduated from Columbia Bible College in 2022 with a bachelor’s degree in Biblical Studies and worked at the college as an Academic Support Advisor for one year before joining the Youth Unlimited team on staff.

Calvin is passionate about walking with teenagers through the everyday stuff of life. He believes that the Kingdom of God permeates all parts of life, even the most mundane things, and wants to live a life of invitation into that Kingdom. Calvin is also passionate about seeing the local church love their neighborhoods and is excited to find opportunities to build bridges between the ministry of youth unlimited and the work of the church in Abbotsford.

Calvin is married to Hannah, and they are members of The Gathering Church in Abbotsford where Hannah serves as the Children’s Ministry Coordinator. They also serve their community together as worship leaders. Calvin loves all things that spark creativity and curiosity. He loves a good story, an interesting (but ultimately useless) fact, or a thought-provoking piece of art. In his free time, you might find Calvin playing board games with friends, writing music, enjoying a new podcast, book, or documentary, or exploring the great outdoors.
