Pastor

Temple Diehl/

senior pastor

We welcome our new pastor, Temple Diehl and her husband, Jason to Yukon First. WE are so happy to have you join us in this new season.

From Pastor Diehl:

I am from Texas, but I got here as fast as I could!  We arrived in Oklahoma to serve a church, fully planning to go back to Texas.  We did not.  The good people of Oklahoma loved us so well that we stayed.  I am married to Jason and we have 3 adult children.  We are happy empty nesters.  Our children are a blessing and they go home!  We have grand dogs and cats and spoil them rotten!

I am so excited and Jason is too to be here at Yukon 1st.  We expect to serve with all of you to serve Jesus and bring the kingdom of heaven closer here on earth, right here in Yukon!

If you would like to visit, I am always up for a good soda! I am not grown enough yet to drink coffee, maybe one day.

We can't wait to see what God is going to do in Yukon and especially at Yukon 1st!

Much Love,

Temple
