Lowell Engle

Lowell and his wife, Jill, met while attending Montana Wilderness School of the Bible outside of Augusta. Shortly after their time as students, they were married and invited to join the staff at MWSB. They moved in the summer of 2014 and became members of the Augusta Community Church Congregation. Lowell and Jill long to see people build their lives around the everyday importance of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. They strongly believe that this Good News changes everything. Lowell served as a Deacon for three years before becoming an elder, and Jill enjoys serving in the music ministry at church. Lowell and Jill have three kids whom they love raising in Augusta.
