Ross Adelmann - Lead Pastor
Ross’ journey has taken him from Minnesota to every one of the ‘O’ states. He describes himself as an “_ucks” fan—Ducks before Bucks. As the lead pastors, Ross loves seeing people connecting to God, discovering how God wired them to make a difference, and living in the joy of deep friendships. In his free time, he loves hiking, kayaking, wildlife, mountains, and oceans—especially when he gets to enjoy those things with Wendy and their grown children, Derek, Elise, Jared, and soon to be daughter-in-law Cara.
Jeremy Shelley - Family Life Pastor
Jeremy is a native Texan, but don’t hold that against him. As the Family Life Pastor, Jeremy gets to live out his passion of seeing families thrive in their faith. He enjoys finding new adventures to go on with his wife Alexis and his three children, Lofton, Lillian, and Lorelei.
Wendy Adelmann - Creative & Counseling Pastor
Wendy enjoys people. She values helping others see their strengths and how they can connect with God more. Wendy oversees small groups as well as the Thrive Counseling and Coaching Center, where she is also a counselor. Her favorite things are spending time with her husband of 34 years and her 3 adults kids, hiking and kayaking and relaxing with friends.

Tiana Barnes - Worship Leader
Tiana is a born and raised Ohio gal and loves it. She’s enjoyed exploring all it has to offer with her family growing up. Her best friend Daniel taught her guitar back in 2010 and she’s never put it down. Now as one of Quest’s worship leaders, she loves leading the congregation in musical worship, declaring God’s goodness in the midst of uncertain times. Tiana is a high school history teacher and is still exploring new places to travel to with her now husband, Daniel.
