The same man — thirty years younger. A newcomer to ministry. Insecure. Nervous. Still trying to sound “like a pastor". He is a suspect in the kidnapping of the children.
Church administrator and the pastor’s right hand. Strict, charismatic, loud, highly organized, and constantly on the verge of a nervous breakdown. She runs the church, manages the camp, coordinates operations, and makes sure the schedule is followed.
