Lead Pastor - Joel & Shafali Frymire
Both Pastor Joel & Shafali enjoy leading people into an ever deepening relationship with Jesus. They are excited to help others discover the truth of God’s word and works; showing people the similarities between their lives and those presented in the bible. Getting people to discover what God is calling them to do is one of their primary goals; they strive daily to live out the Great Commission.
Pastor Joel draws great strength from the verse Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me. It reminds him that ministry is not about himself or what he does. It is letting Jesus live through him and letting Jesus be front and center in his life/ministry.

Married since 2005 the Frymires’ feel that God has called them to live a family life that glorifies Him, just as He has called them to life of service to the church.
Their two sons (Malachi and Elliot) and two daughters (Mahalia and Eliana) are an integral part of their lives. Together, Joel and Shafali strive to raise Godly children and model a faith filled family life. While life is often messy and never perfect, Joel and Shafali strive to please God with the way the lead and guide the family He has placed in their care. The Frymires enjoys board games, movies, fishing, hiking, and good fellowship. |
