About Christopher Piper
About Christopher Piper

I have been a member of the Canton, IL community since I was 8 years old. While attending Canton High School, I met my now wife, Melissa while in my junior year. We have never looked back since then and married five years later at Wesley United Methodist Church.


We have three children, Elijah, Ellyana, and Elise who all attend Canton community schools. We are members of the Evangelical Free Church of Canton where I am both a serving elder of the church and also play guitar for the worship team about once per month. In addition, we have always loved being a part of our small group community and gather with other couples on a weekly basis as we strive to encourage one another.


As a person who has committed himself to our community through teaching, coaching, and relationship building, I'm passionate about helping others as they plan and prepare for their financial future. Reach out if you have questions or if you'd like to sit down and talk to me, give me a call and I'd be happy to meet with you.
