our leadership

Jason Salyers

Jason and his wife Amy have three adult — and one almost-adult — kids who routinely humble them with their talents, creativity, and kindness. He works as a creative director for a local marketing firm, but when he’s not working, he’s playing music, writing, or fly fishing (the latter with limited success).

Camilla Pietreniak

I became familiar with Imago Dei Church during the COVID-19 pandemic. I consider this a huge  unexpected positive of that challenging time. Raised Catholic, I later became deeply involved in the Methodist church throughout my high school years. However, when the pandemic shifted church life online and out of the building, I realized that my connection to the Methodist church had become more of a comfortable habit than a meaningful commitment. This realization led me to explore other faith communities which is how I came across Imago Dei. I have a deep heart for serving the marginalized & loving those that can be hard to love. Despite being single with no children of my own, I treasure being "Aunt" Camilla to many nieces & nephews by proxy.

Lisa McCormick

Lisa and her husband have attended Imago since 2010. Together they have three kids: Lily, Jane, and Leon. After 10 years of being a stay at home parent, she now works full time for the USDA at the ‘Ag Lab’ in Peoria. Lisa is also part of the Genesis team at Imago and schedules the volunteers who teach our children. Lisa’s favorite weekday is Thursday - when her small town newspaper is delivered and she can complete the crossword puzzle.

Renae Miller

Renae Miller is a mom to two active kids, and a psychotherapist in Peoria at a hospital trauma recovery program and in private practice. For fun she likes theater and choir, Harry Potter and being outside in nature. She serves on the Worship team, the Genesis team, and the Formation team. She has attended Imago since its second Sunday in 2008 and loves Jesus and people of all the stripes God makes them.

Ginger Kruiswyk

Ginger is married to the very patient Rich and together they are parents to eight mostly-grown children. She loves all things numbers and works for a large pharmaceutical company in their tax department. She is very excited about her husband's retirement and all the possibilities that opens up for home projects and additional time together.
