Evan Brankin

Evan Brankin is from Geneva, IL in Chicagoland, and has two brothers, one older and one younger. He graduated from Miami University (OH) in 2006 with a degree in Political Science, spent two years in Japan teaching English, then moved to Williamsburg, VA and worked at a craft brewery managing distribution and packaging.

Discerning a call to ministry through volunteering at St. Bede parish, he moved back to the midwest in 2016 to serve as Coordinator of Youth and Young Adult Ministry at Our Lady of Victory parish in Davenport, IA. He is focused on parish renewal, building up disciples through relationships, and mission oriented ministry.

An avid homebrewer and martial artist, Evan loves brewing and sharing honey wines and has practiced a variety of martial arts over the last twenty years.

Three years ago he married his wife Karina in the same chapel where they first met. Since then they’ve welcomed two little boys to their family.

They’re excited to start a new chapter of their lives at Most Blessed Sacrament, and hope you’ll come and share a glass of wine and share your story of faith.
