Jake Jenkins

A longtime member and leader in our church, Jake brings a wealth of leadership experience to his role as Director of Student Ministries, where he disciples our students and drives the vision for fostering a faith in their lives that sticks beyond their teen years. Before coming on staff, Jake served 15 years in the federal government, and served on the faculty at Georgetown University, where he was a department chair at the McCourt School of Public Policy. He holds a Doctorate in National Security Leadership from Creighton University. As a part of the Capital Presbyterian Church family, he has served as the chair of our Board of Deacons, and was deeply involved with multiple mission partners. When he’s not in the office or spending time with our teens, you’ll find Jake out on the lake or the golf course, coaching high-school baseball, and spending time at home with his young family.
