Pastors Rusty and Alegra Rohr
Our Associate/Interim Pastor's Rusty and Alegra have been serving in ministry together for over 30 years, having met while in a Christian band at the University of Utah through Campus Crusade for Christ. Their shared passion for worship, discipleship, and community has shaped their leadership journey. They’ve helped plant several churches in Utah and Arizona and have called St. George home for the past 14 years. At New Life St. George, Rusty and Alegra serve as Associate Pastors, Worship Team Leaders, and Young Adult Ministry Leaders. Alegra, a gifted worship leader, discovered her calling to ministry in college and now leads worship with a heart to deepen faith and bring people into a closer relationship with God. Rusty, a skilled guitarist, pianist and nurse practitioner specializing in infectious disease, shares a deep passion for preaching the gospel and shepherding others in their spiritual growth. Together, they have five children—three adults and two still at home, including two they adopted through foster care. In addition to their work at New Life St. George, they also serve as Interim Pastors of New Life Hurricane, furthering their mission to expand God’s love and the reach of the gospel.
Associate Pastor Jeff Rosinski
Pastor Jeff Rosinski
Jeff our Associate Pastor also helps lead the worship team. Jeff previously served as Children's Pastor at Mountain View Christian Assembly in Sandy, UT. for ten years. Both he and his wife, Shirley, were saved together on July 10th, 1975. Jeff and Shirley served as "Missionary Associates" with International Media Ministries (IMM), a division of the World Missions of the Assemblies of God, in Brussels, Belgium, and in Madrid, Spain. In 2006, they returned to Utah where Jeff was invited to become "assistant to the senior pastor" at Mountain View and served in that position until his retirement in January of 2017. After retiring and moving to a warmer climate, they desired for God to show them His "purpose" for their move. The "purpose" became evident when they visited Hurricane and became aware of a "church plant" (New Life Christian Center in Hurricane, UT). Their desire was to be like (Aaron and Hur), who held up their hands of Moses. They are now seeing this new work grow into a strong and thriving church as well as a beacon of light and hope to the residents of and visitors to Hurricane, UT.
Bookkeeper / Media Ministry
Shirley Rosinski
Shirley Rosinski
Shirley serves as the church bookkeeper and helps with the media ministry. Jeff and Shirley married in June of 1972, and have three children and six grandchildren. Shirley has enjoyed traveling to many countries with Jeff on his business trips and as missionaries. One of her passions is flowers! She enjoyed arranging bouquets and giving hundreds of them away to neighbors, women (and a few men) at their previous church from her beautiful flower gardens. She delighted in this ministry of sharing "the fragrance of God's love!!"
While overseas, she became much more familiar with computers and the internet while working in the finance department with IMM. That knowledge now benefits her in the Media Ministry and she has always loved working with finance related tasks. She is active in our Missionaries Ministry and we support them monthly. Shirley is thankful for where the Lord has placed her in her various ministry duties at New Life.
