Edward Marton, youth director, to Depart Kentucky-Tennessee Conference for New Role at Quiet Hour Ministries

Edward Marton, who has served as Youth Director for the Kentucky-Tennessee Conference since January 2023, will soon transition to a new chapter in his career. On December 1, Marton will step into the role of President and CEO of Quiet Hour Ministries, a global outreach organization headquartered in Redlands, California.

During his time at the Kentucky-Tennessee Conference, Marton directed summer camp programs at Indian Creek Camp and was instrumental in founding Fusion, a ministry specifically designed to engage and support high school students in their faith journeys. As Marton prepares to leave the Conference, he shares that what he will miss the most is the people.

“I loved working with the young adults and the process of interviewing, hiring, and getting to know so many fantastic individuals,” Marton said. “I loved visiting our churches, sharing Jesus on Sabbaths, and spending time in our schools during weeks of prayer. Of course, what I’ll miss the most is seeing changed lives at summer camp.”

In the coming months, Marton’s wife, Mariya, who serves as the Conference’s Youth and Young Adult Coordinator, will remain to assist with the transition of the new Youth Director before eventually joining Marton in California.

Addressing the young people of the conference, Marton says they will remain in his prayers.

“Life is better with Jesus,” Marton said. “Keep growing and living life with Him. My prayer for you is that one day we will be together in His Kingdom.”
