Austin & Chloe PfrimmerAustin was hired as the full-time BSU Director at Crowder College by the Shoal Creek Baptist Association in 2023. He graduated from Southwest Baptist University with a B.S. in Christian Ministry in 2021. After this, he and his wife, Chloe, responded to a call to ministry in Noel, Missouri. Austin was ordained and served as associate pastor at Community Baptist Church in Noel for around 2 years, with a focus on discipleship and church structure/organization.
Austin's wife, Chloe, was heavily involved in ministries in Noel. Chloe graduated from Southwest Baptist University with a B.A. in Intercultural Studies. Chloe was the Family Life Center Coordinator for the church, and notably oversaw the food pantry and clothing drive. The food pantry offered a free lunch and groceries to hundreds of people every two weeks. Under Chloe's care, the pantry became completely sustained on donations, and most importantly, had a gospel presentation each time the pantry was open. All of this was made possible through the help of wonderful volunteers. Chloe is now a stay-at-home-mom and is the Associate Director of Missions & Outreach in the BSU. She helps plan, organize, and lead BSU mission trips. She also leads meetings and provides helpful resources to prepare students to go on mission trips. Chloe also teaches gospel presentation lessons within the BSU. In March of 2024, Austin and Chloe welcomed their first child, Olivia Jane Pfrimmer. She has not only been a blessing to Austin, Chloe, and their families, but also to the students in the BSU! Olivia loves to play with and be held by our students in the BSU. The BSU students in 23-24 even helped pick out her name! Austin and Chloe have been on many Mission trips and are excited to bring their passion, experience, and international connections to the BSU. Their trip to Lesotho, Africa, is a highlight of their ministry and they were blessed to be used on such a successful trip. Austin writes for the Collegiate Disciple Maker blog. In his free time, you may find Austin fishing wherever the bass bite, playing basketball wherever he can find a competitive game, or playing old country guitar songs to the birds on his deck. Both Austin and Chloe enjoy reading and writing, and try to do both as much as possible. |
