Ignite Leadership Team and Small Group Leaders
Greg & Daisy Codouni
We have been married since summer 2016, and are originally from Lebanon. We've been doing youth work and college outreach work for many years now. Our hope this year with Ignite is to see the youth experience the Lord in a deeper way and to see them grow and mature in their relationships and faith.

Hello! I recently graduated from EMU where I studied dietetics/nutrition. In college I got involved with UCO, which introduced me to the Word of Life community. I love dancing, playing sports, making jewelry, and cooking. I am excited to grow along side the youth this year!

Hello there! My name is Kelsey, and I'm thrilled to be working with Ignite this year! I'm a Public Health student at Eastern Michigan University, and I have a passion for working with other women for the Gospel. In my spare time, I love reading old books, talking about the Lord over a cup of tea or coffee, and I also have an affinity for pastry and bread work

Tony Sarkis
I was born and raised in Lebanon. After college I moved to Belfast, Northern Ireland. I spent 3 years doing mission work with UCO there and in the rest of Europe, which also included some youth work. Now I am living in cold Ann Arbor and I'm excited to be serving with Ignite.

Karl Codouni
I am originally from Lebanon, and I grew up as part of a Christian community there called People of God. I've also lived in several different places around the world including London, New Jersey, Lansing, and Ann Arbor! I would love to see more and more youth experience the love of the Lord as I did when I was in high school!

Peter Wilson
I grew up in the Word of Life Community, and so I also had a chance to participate in Ignite all through high school. I was part of our planning team, and led the music for our meetings. When I graduated high school in 2018, I decided to do a Gap year through the Sword of the Spirit, and I moved to Costa Rica. There, part of my work was leading and developing the community’s youth group, and I loved the opportunity it gave me to get to know the high schoolers and have an impact on their lives. When I got back at the beginning of the summer in 2019, I decided to continue to serve with our Community youth group. This work has continued to be a blessing for me, and I am excited to get to know our students better!
