Jon and his wife Sarah moved to Orcas in the summer of 2018 from Chicago to head up the middle and high school ministry. Born in San Diego, he graduated from Point Loma Nazarene University with a B.A. in Christian Ministries. Jon previously worked for six years at By The Hand Club For Kids, a Chicago based after-school program in some of the most under-resourced neighborhoods in Chicago.  He has held numerous random jobs, pursues a life long quest to learn new things, loves camping, a long list of nerdy things, connecting to God through nature, pouring into young people, families, and his community, and the most important show in television history; M*A*S*H. 

Alicia and her family made the move to beautiful Orcas Island in 2021. Known for her big heart and love for community, she thrives on helping others and making meaningful connections with the people around her. An outdoor enthusiast, she especially enjoys fishing and finds peace and joy in being near the water. She’s also an avid supporter of her daughters’ athletic pursuits and can often be found cheering from the sidelines at their sporting events. When she’s not spending time with family or giving back to the community, Alicia brings energy, kindness, and a genuine passion for people to everything she does, making her a valued part of the Orcas Island community.

Stephen Baker may not have been born in WA, but he lives and breathes island life. After moving to Orcas at age 3 and starting piano at age 5, he quickly discovered that he had a passion for music. Growing his repertoire into 12 different instruments (if you count 4 different saxophones), he cemented his love for worship starting at age 11, playing music throughout high school and college. Steve is excited to spread the joy of music in churches and other venues. He hopes he can bring his love for the Lord and music together in supporting Orcas Island Community Church in their future endeavors with Worship.
