Our Staff

Pastor BJ "Zephyr" Fouts, Executive Director

BJ met his wife, Jessica, at Camp CILCA in central Illinois - and camp has been in their blood ever since. Besides going on to become an ordained pastor and lead a large Nebraska congregation, Jessica and he had dreams of running an LCMS Christian camp some day. As a pastor, BJ served as an advisor, staff trainer and retreat leader at Camp Luther in Nebraska for several years. 

His bachelors in Theological Languages came from Concordia University in River Forest, Illinois and Masters of Divinity from Concordia Seminary in St. Louis. Besides being an excellent pastor and story teller, BJ has experience as an official for football, basketball, and many more sports, so he has an interesting perspective on most sports. 

Jessica and BJ have 4 children. 

​Favorite Bible verse: Ezekiel 37:14
