Shane Fast served on staff with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and Campus Outreach before starting Rebirth in 2008. He is on the coaching staff of the football team at East St. Louis High School, where he is developing relationships with teenagers and leading them in weekly Bible studies.

Mike Bertucci is currently a full-time student at Covenant Seminary in St. Louis, but his desire to minister in East St. Louis has caused him to tweak his seminary schedule to work with us on a part-time basis. Mike is a coach at East St. Louis as well, working with the freshman football team. This gives our ministry exposure to over 70 kids a day!
