New SD Junior Bible Quiz Coordinator  


Hello! We are Chris and Ashley Anderson and we are excited to serve as the new South Dakota district JBQ Coordinators! We are members of LifeChange Church in Sioux Falls, SD and have been involved in kids ministry for over 20 years - from full time ministry to various volunteer positions. We currently help coordinate JBQ at LifeChange, as well as serve on the deacon team.



When our boys became involved in Junior Bible Quiz in 2020, we discovered the incredible impact it had on our kids' faith formation. They were memorizing Scripture, learning the Bible, and discovering what we believe as Christians - all while having fun and building relationships with friends and their leaders.


We are passionate about equipping parents and church leaders to effectively disciple kids so they can grow stronger in their faith and in their walk with Jesus. We're excited to see JBQ used as a tool to do just that.
