Gratitude for the Church

Pastor Joel Preston

Joel Preston has been our Pastor since 2010. Joel was born and raised in southern New Jersey and graduated from Trinity Baptist College. Joel served for eight years as Youth Pastor, and one year as the Christian School Principal at a church in Tampa, Florida.

Joel and his wife Jenine have two sons, J. J. and Jace. Pastor Joel is passionate about expository preaching, theology, building a strong Christian home, and loving people as they are. In his “spare time”, he can be found playing disc golf, reading or just hanging out with his family. Joel was custom designed to live in Minnesota as he loves the cold weather and snow. He is hopelessly addicted to books, diet Mountain Dew and all things Philadelphia.
