My name is Tanner Nolen, and I serve as the Youth Minister here at Washington Street. I’m passionate about helping young people build a lasting, authentic relationship with Jesus and navigate the world through the lens of God’s Word.

I graduated from Auburn University in 2024 with a degree in Aviation Management, and while my career path began in the skies, my heart is rooted in ministry. I previously interned at Washington street in 2021 and 2024, where I had the opportunity to teach, mentor, and grow alongside an incredible group of students and leaders. That experience helped confirm my calling to serve in youth ministry full-time.

I believe youth ministry should be honest, engaging, and full of purpose and I’m grateful every day for the chance to walk alongside students in their faith journeys.
