Brady McAdams

Student Ministries Intern

I am from Elk River, MN. I was encouraged to come to H2O College Ministry by one of my roommates my freshman year. My spiritual gifts are having faith, being a helper, serving, and exhorting others. In my spare time I love to go walking around Lake Winona, hiking, and hanging out with friends. In the future I hope to become a vocational pastor and journalist.

Sara Spears

Biblical Counseling Intern

I am from White Bear Lake, MN. I got involved with H2O my freshman year. PV truly has a special community that I am so thankful to be a part of. I will graduate from WSU with a Major in Social Work and a Minor in Spanish and hope to work in mental health or school counseling some day. I have the spiritual gifts of serving, mercy, and shepherding. I enjoy playing volleyball, reading, hiking, and hanging out with my friends.

I am from Winona, MN. I first became a part of PV my Senior year of High School when I started to attend Thrive. My spiritual gifts are exhortation, mercy, and administration. I enjoy spending time with family and friends, outdoor activities, and playing different games. After the internship, I want to become a social worker. I’m not sure on the details, but just letting God direct me.

Sylvia Hansen

College Ministry Intern

I am from Gillett, WI. I started coming to PV my freshman year (2021). In my spare time you can catch me traveling, rock climbing, running, playing outside, reading, or playing tunes for Jesus on my guitar. My spiritual gifts are serving, shepherding, and discernment. I’m currently attending Liberty University Online to pursue a Ministry degree. After that, I’m hoping to find a job in vocational ministry.

I grew up in Winona and have been attending PV since kindergarten. My spiritual gifts are teaching, prophecy, pastoring, and giving. I love reading books and spending time outside, especially spending time with friends. I hope to be a pastor and potentially a church planter someday.

Caleb Olson

Student Ministry Resident and Worship Arts Intern

I grew up in Hastings, MN. My siblings, Daniel and Kirsten, introduced me to PV. My spiritual gifts are wisdom, patience, gentleness, discipleship, and self-control. I love listening/playing music, climbing, skiing, playing games, and camping. After the internship, I am excited to run my non-profit “The Youth Workers Closet” which exists to equip ministries for evangelistic outreach events (you may have seen the inflatables at Camp Awesome).

I grew up in Mauston, WI. In the fall of 2023, I was invited by some friends to check out PV. My spiritual gifts are exhortation, shepherding, teaching, showing compassion, and building strong connections. I love spending time in God’s creation, playing guitar, being in community, and traveling. I want to work full-time doing camp ministry after the internship.
