Jonathan Wallenbeck, our new pastor, has been a pillar of our community since 2018, when he joined as the Associate Pastor of Youth/Family Ministry. Under his guidance, the youth group has blossomed from a small gathering to a vibrant ministry of around 20, meeting on Wednesday & Sunday nights. His dedication and commitment have equipped outstanding leaders who lead the ministry into the future as he steps into his new role as our pastor.

Pastor Wallenbeck brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to his role. He served in the United States Air Force for 20 years before heeding God’s call into Gospel Ministry. His academic achievements include a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering Technology from Louisiana Tech University, a Master of Arts in Computer Resources and Information Management from Webster University, and a Master of Theological Studies in Preaching and Pastoral Ministries from Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. These qualifications reflect his dedication to serving our congregation and his commitment to deepening his understanding of God’s Word.

Outside of his pastoral duties, Pastor Wallenbeck leads a fulfilling personal life. He is married to Sybil, and together, they have two grown children who have blessed them with six grandchildren and one great-grandchild. Pastor Wallenbeck’s love for people and his desire to share God’s love with everyone he meets are evident in his interactions. In his leisure time, he enjoys playing golf, spending quality time with his grandchildren, and cherishing moments at home with his wife.
