Caroline Pierce
Hi! My name is Caroline Pierce, and I was born and raised in Plano,Texas. I love hanging out with friends, riding rollercoasters, laughing really hard, playing board games, a good cup of coffee, and watching black and white movies. My favorite food is definitely ice cream (prailines and cream is the best) and a fun fact about me is that my birthday is on Valentine’s Day (but Christmas still wins for favorite holiday). I have three dogs back home as well as two younger brothers and I play the piano!
Why did you join Pursuit?
I joined the Pursuit ministries because I believe that community is incredibly important and Pursuit is full of amazing girls who push me to grow deeper in my walk with Christ, as well as providing genuine friendship. I also love the opportunity to be able to mentor a highschool/middle school aged girl because of the blessing that comes from sharing what God has taught me over the years and seeing first hand how He is moving in the life of someone who I have been given the chance to deeply invest in.

Kirsten Bynum
My name is Kirsten Bynum, and I’m from right here in good ole College Station, Texas! In what little free time I have, I enjoy photography, taking pictures of all of God’s beautiful creations, whether that’s people or nature. My favorite food would probably have to be jalapeño chips. The most notable thing about me is my love for crocs, so if you come across someone in a sweatshirt and crocs- that’s probably me.
Why did you join Pursuit?
I joined the Pursuit Ministries because when I was in youth group, the lovely Pursuit Ministry girls mentored me throughout my high school experience- and through the hardest times in my life. So I joined in order to hopefully be a similar light for the Lord in other girls’ lives.
