BVCC Ministry Leaders...

Jenn Shelby
Art Ministry Coordinator

Jenn has been attending BVCC since the summer of 2006. She was raised in a Christian home and claimed Jesus as her Savior at the age of 5. Her passion and excitement for Jesus constantly continues to grow.

Jenn is married to Doug, who fell in love with her when he saw her baptized and heard her testimony. They were married at BVCC on Valentines Day in 2009.  She has a son, Dylan, and recently acquired 2 stepdaughters when she married Doug. Life is always an adventure with kids ranging in age from toddler to teenager.

Jenn has always had a passion for arts. She was a dancer for 13 years and was always drawing and creating as a kid. She is ¾ of the way to a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Art Metals at BSU.

 For a long time she has struggled with the desire to do art not knowing how to use it to Gods glory. She felt released to use her creative gifts after a discussion in a church leadership class in early 2008 that simply brought up the idea of arts as ministry. A month later Envision Arts was born.

Jenn is so excited to be placed in ministry in the arts right now because at this point in history there is a reuniting of the arts and the church taking place. They have long been separated and at odds. There are many artists lost and searching who could be touched through visual media. She desires to see others released in their gifts in the fine arts, to use the arts as an avenue of sharing the testimony of God in their lives to bring hope and inspiration to a desperate world.
