Pastor Nate has been on staff since August 2015.
In July 2020 he was voted in as lead pastor.
He has a love of books and a desire to share everything he has learned with anyone who will listen. Give him a coffee shop, a couch and an hour; he will either have taken a nap, made a new friend, and likely read something that he needs to tell you about.
Pastor Nate is married to Elisha, together they have two sons, Amos & Eli.
