Skyler Bascom
Pastor of Family Ministry
In 2022 Skyler and his wife Amanda packed up their belongings and moved their four children (with one on the way) from the Pacific Northwest to Rapid City in hopes of serving Christ and His church in a new and fresh environment. Since arriving to Rapid City, Skyler has enjoyed and greatly benefited from the contemplative, thoughtful, and reflective approach to worship at Westminster. His hope is to facilitate opportunities where families can encounter the living God in a meaningful and impactful way. He has a interest in inter-generational discipleship and looks for ways to support families in their efforts to raise the next generation of Christians. He is actively engaged with West Middle School as the FCA (Fellowship of Christian Athlete) huddle leader and looks forward to serving teens at West Middle school as an advocate and mentor. -

Natalie Eagan
Children's Ministry Leader
Natalie has lived in Rapid City for 7 years with her husband, Shane, and their two boys ages 7 and 3. She grew up in Illinois and Wisconsin. Motherhood sparked her desire to have a deeper relationship with God to model for her family. This led her to join Bible Study Fellowship in 2017 where she currently serves as a Children's Supervisor. She's still learning to embrace slow progress over perfection, and she has a passion for ministering to parents along their faith journey.
When she finds free time, she likes to savor decaf oat milk lattes, try new restaurants, read non-fiction, and take walks or hikes with her husband or friends. She lives in a college football household and would love to have your family over on a Saturday to watch the games and, most importantly, enjoy snacks while the kids play.
