Jennifer began her involvement at First Pres as a three-year-old in the nursery when her family moved to Colorado Springs from Pasadena, CA. She has now been on staff for twenty-three years focusing on young adults, discipleship, executive leadership and is, currently, our Invitation & Engagement Pastor. She served in the New England area as campus staff with InterVarsity Christian Fellowship after her college years and then made her way back to her hometown of Colorado Springs to serve at First Pres. She is married to Adam Holz, director of Pluggedin.com at Focus on the Family, and they have three teenage children in middle and high school. Jennifer has her BA in Psychology from Amherst College and her MDiv and DMin from Fuller Theological Seminary. Jennifer was ordained in 2002. She teaches at Denver Seminary and the Flourish Institute of Theology, and as a pastor her joy is teaching, shepherding and leading for transformation. She’ll read anything from Ruth Haley Barton, Dale Bruner or Andy Crouch. She loves reading, swimming, filming and watching her kids play sports and perform musically.
