Christian's Story

Christian is a graduate of The Urban Ministry Institute (TUMI) and has been the volunteer Site Leader at Fellowship Community Church in Centennial for over 4 years. In November 2022, the TUMI Denver team – Mike Dickie, Chaplain Kris Briggs, and Christian – embarked on a new journey with the TUMI ministry.  After much prayer, discussion, and support from World Impact, they determined that it’s strategic to not only grow TUMI programs in Denver but to also expand throughout Colorado by becoming an independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit. To keep in pace with the great vision God has given them, they broadened the scope of the ministry by creating, The Urban Ministry Institution (TUMI) of Colorado. Recently, he eagerly decided to serve as Director.
