Meet our Staff

Pastor Allen has been the Lead Pastor of Lake Chelan Bible Church since June of 2024. Allen and Taryn were both born in Western Washington and met while attending Northwest University together in Kirkland, WA. After graduating from Northwest in 2018 with a Bachelors Degree in Pastoral Ministries and Biblical Studies, Allen moved from the Seattle area to Wenatchee, WA. Taryn joined him after they got married in 2020 and  have called the NCW their home ever since! In 2023 they welcomed their first child into the world and she has kept them on their toes!

The Swayzes are very excited to answer the call to be Lead Pastors at Lake Chelan Bible Church. When not doing ministry, Pastor Allen enjoys the outdoors through hunting, fishing, golfing, and skiing! 

Our names are Mac and Hailey and we are your Worship Directors at Lake Chelan Bible Church. We moved from South West Washington to Chelan in the spring of 2020 and found our church home here just after. We joined the worship team and accepted our role on staff in 2021. Together, we schedule the worship team, manage song selection, create arrangements, and organize music for worship nights and Sunday Services.
Our mission at Lake Chelan Bible Church is to create a culture of congregational worship that unites our church body in praise, prayer, and thanksgiving with words that prophesy the Word of God and proclaim the Gospel.

We both have musical backgrounds; Mac is a professional musician and Hailey is a piano teacher. Having grown up in the church, we each joined worship teams at a young age. Hailey received extensive training in worship leadership through Salvation Army programs as a teen and young adult, while Mac has experience directing music ensembles and bands.
We’ve made Chelan our home and have settled in downtown. We have 3 daughters, Aria, Siena, and Talia. When we aren’t working or homeschooling, you’ll find Mac sunbathing, Hailey tending her garden, or strolling the town as a family.
