Speaker Jill Nihiser

Growing up in Lancaster, Ohio, Jill had the distinct privilege of knowing her husband and being a part of Calvary Baptist Church since she was four years old. Matt and Jill both attended Cedarville University and after graduation, were invited back to their home church as Senior Pastor and wife. They have now served at Calvary for 23 years and are so thankful for the family and friends there for over 40 years. Their three children (Ruby, 11; Henry, 7; Ellie, 7) keep Jill pretty busy at home. Although she is frequently involved in discipleship, counseling, and teaching, her true love is building relationships. It is a joy for her to hear others share their story, and if at all possible, to laugh. Laughter truly is the best medicine.

"I have been praying for God to nutritionally bless all of us with His Word. I am looking forward to meeting you and building relationships with you, and hopefully we can do alot of laughing together over these few days!" - Jill
