Meet Your Speaker Weekend 3 / February 27 – March 1
Dustin Zerwas Dustin, known affectionately at camp as “Wonka,” serves as Youth & Activities Pastor at First Baptist Eugene, bringing passion, experience, and a deep love for students and families to the role. Born in Minnesota and raised in Florida, Dustin and his family moved to Eugene in February 2024, following a clear sense of calling to serve in what’s known as the largest unchurched city of its size in the nation. Dustin has been involved in youth ministry since he was just 12 years old and has spent over 11 years as a youth pastor. He holds a Bachelor’s degree from Trinity College of Florida and a Master’s degree from Dallas Theological Seminary. His heart is to see young people encounter Jesus, grow in their faith, and build lifelong community. Dustin and his wife, Natalie, are high school sweethearts and have been happily married for 20 years. Together, they’ve built a vibrant, joy-filled home through the adoption of nine incredible children: Randall, Ashton, Isaac, Bentley, Aiden, Alexia, Callie, Grayson, and Jace. Life in the Zerwas home is always an adventure full of laughter, love, and activity. As a family, they love hiking, collecting interesting rocks for their yard, enjoying movie nights, and playing games together.
