Dr. Dan Baker, Senior Minister
On February 25, 1973 I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior in my home church in Omaha, Nebraska. On June 10, 1983 our Father gave me my high school sweetheart as my wife. On May 5th, 1996, I was ordained as a minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. On Sunday August 30, 2015 Jeanne and I met our new church family here at Appleton Christian Church, and we are so blessed to be called here to work together to share the Good News of Jesus to those who need hope. On May 1, 2021 I received my Doctor of Ministry degree from Emmanuel Christian Seminary, completing a long and enjoyable season of formal education.
Jeanne and I have five children, Jim and his wife Marisel, Jon and his wife Monica, and our daughter Katie. We have four grandbabies, twins Xelenie and Magnus, born to Jim and Marisel; and Gabriel and Jacob born to Jon and Monica. We also have a dog named Xena.

Alan Dyson, Senior Associate Minister
My family and I accepted the calling to minister at Appleton Christian Church in April of 2016. We know that this is where we have been called and can't wait to see what God continues to do in and through Appleton Christian Church. Having been in full time ministry since graduating from Emmanuel Christian Seminary in 2015, I am excited about being part of the ACC family as we grow and continue to seek God together. My wife, Kari, and I are looking forward to raising our three boys Nathan, Luke, and Gabe in such a close-knit church.

Jeanne Baker, Secretary
My husband Dan and I moved to Colorado in 2015 when we accepted the ministry position to Appleton Christian Church. We have 3 grown children and 4 grandchildren, 3 boys and 1 girl. I am very involved with the church and am looking forward to being the church secretary and working with this exciting group of people and serving the Lord. I love outdoor activities and swimming.

Heather DeBolt, Youth and Family Resident
I grew up in Sacramento CA, then Greeley, CO, and then spent a few years in the Seattle area before moving to Grand Junction in 2023. I moved here and started attending Appleton originally to marry to my long-distance fiancé, Burk (married 8/12/2023), and I ended up being called to ministry here as well! I've been involved in church ministry most of my life and I love teaching the next generation of believers to follow Christ with the same fervor I strive to maintain. In my spare time, I enjoy bouncing around different creative hobbies and spending time with my husband.
