For students in middle and high school, Palouse Federated Church is a place to grow in their faith. All students need a place to belong, feel safe and learn to apply biblical truth to the joys and challenges they face each day. Our staff and volunteers provide opportunities for those things to happen in weekly group gatherings and occasional trips and events. And yes – there will be plenty of laughing, food and outrageous fun!

Meet the Leaders

Hi my name is Hua Ming Newman, and I am the head leader of youth group. I have been involved in youth group for about five years now. I am a college student at Grand Canyon University getting a BA in Youth Ministry. As for work I am a School Bus Driver at the Gar-Pal School District. I also work here at Palouse Federated Church and other than leading youth group I also run the after-school program for grade schoolers. Lastly I am a volunteer firefighter for Palouse. In my free time I love to play Ice Hockey as well as playing Video Games. My favorite bible verse is Romans 12:21.
Hi! My name is Sunni. I’m a southern gal from Alabama & I moved to the PNW in 2017. I’m married to my highschool sweetheart Garrett and we have an 8 month old baby girl named Isla. (Pronounced like “eye-luh”). I love tacos, Star Wars, the color yellow, flowers, houseplants, gardening, baking, singing, & learning about Christ. Fun fact: I can write with my toes & also peel a banana with them. I accepted Christ when I was 12 & I have been growing in His love ever since. I love working with kids & youth, and I have so much fun seeing them grow in the Lord & in His word. I’m so excited to get to know you all ????!


My name is Marty. It is my privilege to serve with Hua the youth group. I had been a pastor and then took a brief hiatus for 30 years as a postal carrier. When I retired I found out my old church was waiting for me! I have been married to Janice Masten for 42 years, we have 3 sons and 8 grandkids. This is Charlotte our newest edition.
