Anne Bremer

Youth Pastor

Anne Bremer is an ordained pastor in the Church of the Nazarene.  Originally from New Jersey, Anne came to Omaha while in the Air Force.  She has been in youth ministry for a very, very long time ( since the 70's) and has been through every phase from volunteer, intern, leader, chaplain to at risk youth, to pastor.  She's led youth groups from small size to very large in multiple denominations.  Truth be told, she knew she was called to this ministry and even tried to avoid it but God won't let her go.  She's even tried to leave youth ministry several times but can't seem to get away, which makes her one of the oldest youth pastors in our district.  

Anne loves hanging out with teens though as she's now in her 60's she's slowing down a bit.  She can still outlast most everyone when it comes to staying up late for lock-ins though.  Her favorite youth group times are late night discussions.  She firmly believes in the power of relationships and treats every teen as if they were her own.  Anne truly has a heart for all teens but especially those going though rough times. 

Anne lives with her husband Tim, her two dogs and some birds.  She is involved with various animal rescue organizations.  Her and Tim have 3 adult disabled children
