Nick and Ivy Presho have spent their adult lives in Spokane with a deep desire to serve this community. Nick was born in Fresno, California, and moved to Spokane as a teenager, while Ivy, originally from Hillsboro, Oregon, came to Spokane when her father became a lead pastor. Both grew up in Christian homes and received Christ at an early age. Ivy has faithfully served in ministry through leading worship, ministering at kids and youth camps, and participating in Women’s Ministry. Nick felt the call of God on his life at a youth camp, which later led him to attend Bible school in Tulsa, Oklahoma. That season of preparation ignited a passion to see the lost and hurting encounter God’s salvation and deliverance. Nick and Ivy were married in 2006, and after eight years of believing for children, God blessed them with two wonderful boys. Soon after marriage, they became directors of their church’s Nursing Home Ministry, faithfully serving for 13 years. When that season ended, Nick was ordained as Youth Pastor. Experiencing such different areas of ministry helped them see that serving God is as much about caring for the individual as it is about building up the Body of Christ. In addition to ministry, Nick and Ivy have been small business owners for 15 years. They carry a strong heart not only to support the local church, but also to invest in and strengthen their community.
