Shannon Eli | Associate Pastor
Shannon’s first passion in life was motorcycles. He first started riding at the age of 6. Shannon’s Mom was firm in her christian belief,which she instilled in him. His Dad was into the new age beliefs, thus he did not go to church. Shannon did go with his mom and grandparents on special occasions.
As he got into his teens, he bought his first New Harley Davidson. As he got older he started riding with a motorcycle gang. He found himself being drawn into all the parting, fighting and into the overall motorcycle gang life. He could not shake the overwhelming feeling of filth when he would go home. He realized that it was the Holy Spirit convicting him of his sin. He never officially joined the gang but the temptation was growing stronger, so he moved to Casper WY for a new beginning. He started working with a plumbing company and stayed there for almost 30 years before the owner retired and closed the doors. In those 30 years he felt lost and in a dark place. When he was in his 50’s he met his beautiful future bride, Twila. They married and she lovingly started guiding him toward Christ. Before long he was going to church regularly and he had joined CMA (Christian Motorcycle Association). While on a jobsite one day, Shannon fell off a ladder and was badly injured. He crushed his left forearm and received nerve damage. After his first surgery the God go ahold of his life. He turned from his sin, accepted forgiveness, and with a burning passion dove into learning the Bible as much as he could. He is currently taking seminary classes to increase his knowledge even more. He is currently the president of the local CMA and loves serving as a leader in Outfitter Church.
