Colleen grew up on a dairy farm in rural Elgin MN. God got Colleen’s attention and she came to accept Christ as her Savior and Lord of her life during a revival at South Troy Wesleyan Church, in 1980. Colleen was called into ministry in 2005 and completed her studies and was ordained July 19, 2011.
Gary Hoeft and Colleen met at South Troy Wesleyan church and were married there in 1986. God has blessed the Hoeft’s with a total of 8 children during their marriage. Gary retired from the City of Rochester after 29 years in 2007. He continues to work part time driving semi for a local farmer. Gary and Colleen continue to live just a few miles south of the church on Hwy 63. They enjoy going time with their family. Colleen enjoys riding horse and gardening and playing softball. Gary and Colleen love serving the rural community and hope to continue to serve the community long into the future.
