Emma File
Emma became passionate about serving in worship ministry 8 years ago, when she began serving on the student worship band at her youth group. It was there that she discovered her passion for being an instrument for the Lord in any ministry she was called to. At Momentum she loves being part of such a close knit community that is driven to serve the Lord, bringing glory to His name alone. She also enjoys sharing her passion for relationship with Christ in the junior high and high school ministry and has the desire to help them learn to establish God’s kingdom here on Earth, as she was taught when she was their age. Emma recently graduated from Grand Canyon University and married her best friend, Jayson. The two of them are enjoying newly wed life with their golden retriever puppy, Ruth. Emma has ambitions of becoming a physical therapist where she hopes to be part of helping people physically, mentally, and spiritually find hope despite their trials.
