Sydney Duerr is currently serving as an intern with the college ministry as a part of the Leadership Training Project.  She is in her third year at the U of A, and is double majoring in International relations and Middle Eastern Studies.  She loves building relationships with college women and encouraging them in their walks with Christ.  She also loves to learn about different cultures, and, more importantly, she enjoys learning out to love on them with the love of Christ and talk to them about the Gospel.   She loves doing things outdoors, playing sports, reading listening to music, playing, & meeting new people.  She would love to do mission work overseas & possible go to seminary after she graduates.

Steve Kieklak was an intern with the college ministry last year.  He is sticking around this year as “volunteer staff.”  He's a third year student at the University of Arkansas with a huge passion for God's word.  Through the internship he really learned the value of the local church and has really fallen in love with UBC.  Steve has an older brother, Ronnie, and a younger sister, Erika, who both go to UBC and are students at the university.  Steve hopes to go to seminary after getting his undergrad God willing.

Kristin Faulk received her degree in biology from the U of A this past December and is now the College Women’s Ministry Coordinator at UBC.  She has a passion for building relationships with college women and doing life with them, with the desire to see them deepen their walk with Christ.  She also has a passion for reaching international students and enjoys music, reading, the outdoors, traveling and spending quality time with family and friends.  She is so thankful to have the opportunity to serve the body at UBC and blessed to have the opportunity to minister to and with college students.

Cole Penick works with college men's discipleship here at UBC and is also on staff with the Baptist Collegiate Ministry on campus.  He and his wife, Caroline, are passionate about working and living out life with college students.  Cole loves sports, little known local restaurants and spending time with his wife and friends.  He and Caroline plan to one day follow their God-given love of working with college students overseas on to the mission field.
