Mark is a bi-vocational pastor and was led to Hickory Grove in 2003. He, his wife Amy and their 4 children have been an integral part of the mission and outreach of the church. Mark cares deeply for God’s people and leads us in fulfilling God’s command to love others and make disciples. He preaches the Bible as written and lets the Holy Spirit direct his messages.
Bill, David, and Aaron (picture updated as soon as I can get them to stand still a few minutes!) clearly evidence the characteristics of deacons as described in 1 Timothy 3. They raised their families in Pleasant Hill and are blessed to have children (and grandchildren) who are or have been a part of the congregation. They work together and individually to love, serve and encourage our church families through times of struggle and celebration.
Jo has been our music director since 2002 and enjoys teaching us new songs throughout the year. She leads us in worship through a mixture of traditional and contemporary music accompanied by the piano and occasionally, the Hickory Grove Praise Band. She also helps coordinate various activities throughout the year.
We are a small but mighty group who all pull together to make the church run efficiently. Everyone plays a role in making sure our guests are welcome, our members are cared for and most of all, our needs are prayed over. We have a fine library with print and audio books as well as videos; we have some awesome cooks who minister to families in need and make sure we are well-fed before business meetings; there are multiple individuals who take care of all those behind-the-scenes administrative, maintenance and cleaning tasks; and of course, we believe our Sunday School and Children’s Church teachers are some of the best God ever produced.
