Sarah Colegrove
I was born and raised in Anchorage, and after living in Minnesota and Washington, D.C. for several years, I returned home to Alaska in December of 2020. I love to fish, hike, and camp. I have been part of True North Church since February 2021. I grew up as a missionary kid, which instilled me with a strong passion for child and youth discipleship. I'm also a musician, which has fed my passion and love for worship at our church.

Travis Kuehler
I was born and raised in Oklahoma. I met my wife (Heather) at the University of Oklahoma where I studied to become an accountant. We spent 7 years in Houston before moving to Alaska in the spring of 2021. Heather and I love exploring all that Alaska has to offer with our three kids - Camryn, Conrad, and Karlie. I love college football and using our home to show Christ's love through hospitality.

Kyle Markel
I’m a lifelong Alaskan and have been a part of True North since 2011. I am a civil engineer, and in my free time, I enjoy everything outdoors, especially fly fishing and hunting. I love my wife, Nicole, and our one-year-old miracle girl, Lydia.

Penn Moffat
I was born in Raleigh, NC, yet grew up in New Orleans until I was 11, where I was raised in a post-Katrina church. In 2010, my family moved to rural Western NC. From there, I attended Wheaton College and met my lovely wife, Hannah, and matured as a Christian. My work in Coast Guard search and rescue brought me to Alaska where I like woodworking in the winters, biking and canoeing in the summers, and photography year-round.

Teresa Sellers
I was born and raised in Marshalltown, IA. I joined the Air Force and they sent me to Alaska. I retired from the Air Force out of Elmendorf in 2018 and chose to stay. I have been here for 12 years and have been attending True North since 2017. In my free time, I enjoy hiking, fishing, kayaking, biking, and walking my amazing dog, Murphy.
