WORSHIP DIRECTOR

After spending over 28 years in Manitowoc, Wisconsin—serving faithfully at her home church—Ariel is excited to step into this new season of ministry and community life. Having worked in the social work field for the past 7 years, the career change and relocation bring both excitement and curiosity as she and her family follow the Lord's call. She and her husband, Travis, are eager to begin building new relationships. With a heart for the local church and a deep desire to see people grow in their faith, Ariel brings both experience and enthusiasm to this next chapter. In her free time, she enjoys playing board games, traveling to new places, crafting, and taking on the challenge of escape rooms. Ariel and Travis look forward to becoming part of the community and seeing how God continues to work in and through Oaks Church.

LEAD/CAMPUS PASTOR

Henry Michael has a passion for making disciples and fostering meaningful relationships. He is excited to lead this unique “slow plant” journey, transitioning from a multisite campus into an autonomous church in the coming years. He is joined by his wife, Holly, and their four children—Navy, Hank, Mack, and Bonnie—who are equally eager to embrace this new season of ministry. Outside of church-related activities, you’ll likely find Henry spending time with his family, reading a good book, fly fishing, cheering on the Vikings, or playing pickleball. The Williams family looks forward to building connections and growing together with the people of Cottage Grove.
