Reid Hettich, Lead Pastor

Ordained Pastor in The Wesleyan Church

Have 34 years of pastoral experience

Graduate of THE Oklahoma Wesleyan University

Founding pastor of Cherry Creek Wesleyan Church

I am a big sports fan in which I regularly utilize my considerable TV remote control skills.  I have one wife (Joy), two grown kids (Tina & Tyler), one daughter-in-law (Alisa) and three grandkids (Trenton, Tytus & Riley). I enjoy moonlight walks on the beach, and I favor world peace.

Aaron Lipman, Assistant Pastor

I was born and raised in Plano, TX, which should explain why I say things such as “y’all” and “fixin”.  When I was 7, my family started attending church.  Through some amazing people God placed in my life, I came to know Christ, and eventually felt the call to vocational ministry.

In 1999, I headed to Indiana Wesleyan University to major in youth ministry.  During my 4 years there, God taught me a lot, and began the process of preparing me for ministry.  It was during this time that I met my beautiful wife, Jenae.  It took us awhile to figure out we were meant to be together, but we finally did and got married in December of 2006.  I graduated from IWU in 2003, and in 2004 moved out to Aurora, CO to help start a church.

In 2006, I came on board at CCWC as the youth pastor.  It has been a fun journey to see God at work in the church, especially in the lives of the teens.  I continue to be excited to be part of God’s work in and through CCWC.  Along with being on staff at the church, I also coach tennis.  I am the head coach at both Aurora Central and Eaglecrest HS, as well as a teaching pro for Rocky Mountain Tennis Academy.

In my spare time (what’s that?) I love doing anything that involves sports or the outdoors.  My favorite thing to do though is spend time with my wife.  Overall, my life is probably boring and unexciting, but I enjoy it!

Craig Coe, Executive Pastor

Craig and Priscilla moved to Colorado in 2004 to help start a new church in the Denver area. God has allowed them to be a part of CCWC after the closure of that project. Craig graduated from Indiana Wesleyan University in 2002 with a degree in Christian Ministries, and was ordained as a pastor in The Wesleyan Church in 2006.

Craig’s passion is to help CCWC to pursue its mission of helping people connect with God.
