Join us to Worship & Grow

Billy Welsh has been our pastor since October 2020. Prior to pastoring here, he served 8 years in the United States Marine Corps, traveled preaching in over 300 churches, pastored a church in Knoxville, TN, and worked as a plumber for 3 years.

He has been married to his wife, Lauren, since December 21, 2005. They are proud parents to two children, a son, William who is kind, imaginative and was born in 2006, and a daughter, Hosanna, who lived on this earth for 19 days and has been living in Heaven since July 2011

He came to know Jesus Christ as his Savior in September of 2009 while serving in the United States Marine Corps. Meeting Christ forever changed the trajectory of his life in wonderful ways. He has since had the opportunity to lead many friends to Christ, disciple others, and be an encouragement to his brothers and sisters in Christ, sometimes in unexpected ways (especially while working as a plumber). He has a bachelor’s degree from Andersonville Theological Seminary, a Master’s in Ministry from Luther Rice College and Seminary, and is currently working on a Doctorate of Ministry with a focus on Discipleship from Liberty University.

David has been our Associate pastor since March 2023. David and his wife Tracy served in the United States Marine Corps where they met in the mess hall at Camp Lejeune, NC. They were married in April 1983 and have resided in McMinnville since December 2011.

David and Tracy are proud parents to a Navy veteran, Dustin, and grandparents to two beautiful boys, Davin Taylor, and Daelyn Thomas.

Although growing up in church and a Christian home it was not until September 2017 that David came to know Jesus Christ as his Savior. After coming to know Christ David felt Gods calling on his life to continue his education and serve in the local church, David completed his Bachelor’s degree in Christian Studies with Grand Canyon University and started on his Masters in Pastoral Counseling and Community Chaplaincy with Liberty University.
