RaLeigh Roberts

Youth Pastor

Hi everyone, my name is RaLeigh Roberts. If you were to ask me who I am, I'd gladly and unapologetically tell you that I'm a Christ follower. I grew up in a Christian household but, like many others, I didn't take my faith seriously. I joined the army when I was 17 years old and spent a few years in service including a year in Afghanistan. Vernal has been my home for most of my life, so after the army, I moved back. The Lord soon grabbed ahold of my life as my faith had been challenged. The challenging of my faith led my wife and me on an adventure to many parts of the world in search of truth. My beautiful wife attended Bible college in Kauai, Hawaii which had given her a new perspective on what it means to follow Jesus. My wife in turn inspired me to grow deeper in my faith. Tanika and I attended Bible college together in 2019 in Israel at the Golan Heights campus while touring through Israel. My wife and I have been married since June of 2016. Now we are the proud parents of two beautiful babies named Kelton and Tahlia. I have been teaching Jr. high Sunday school since 2018 and have been leading youth group since September of 2022.

Administrative Staff

Chris Daggett

Administrative Assistant 

Hi! I'm Chris Daggett (better known as Phil's wife, aka wifealoo).  I've been a believer most of my life. I was raised by a God-fearing Baptist momma, and we were in church every time the doors were open.
I attended bible college for a year in my early 20's. I met and married Phil shortly after.  We have been in ministry together our whole married life.  We have 2 wonderful daughters, Paige and Erin. They are both adults and have left the "nest". We currently have one grandbaby who is the light of our lives, and we can't wait for more.
I am currently the Office Manager here at Calvary and oversee many ministries. We have a great team of servants to work alongside here at Calvary and I'd be happy to answer any questions I can, or I'll point you in the right direction of who to contact if I can't!

Joe James

Joseph Michael James- born Sept 5, 1990, in Denver Colorado, grew up and graduated high school from Debeque CO.
Joined the USMC in July 2009, and was stationed in 29 Palms California, and in Okinawa and served in Afghanistan. While serving, He married his high school sweetheart Melissa.
God was patient with Joe and revealed himself slowly all throughout his life. Joe came to faith and put his trust in Jesus Christ around 2014 after a faithful brother over a period of time opened the scripture to him and showed him who Jesus was, and his need for a Savior.
Currently Joe lives and works in Vernal, UT with his beautiful family, and serves the Lord with a happy heart, grateful for the forgiveness of his sins, and the redemption in Christ Jesus our Lord.
(John 3:16)
