The Eddy family

Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord! My name is David Eddy, and I have the privilege of pastoring the church where I grew up. It is also where I married my beautiful bride, Carol, in 1991. We have ten children (oldest to youngest): Andrew (married to Miriam), Sarah (married to Jesse Divakar), Margaret (married to James Clemen), Rebekah (married to Heath Brandt), Maxwell, David, Tabitha, Marta (married to Ben VanGelder), William, and Samuel.

As a pastor, my goal is to preach biblically, live righteously, and equip the saints to fulfill the ministry that God has called us to do for His glory. By God’s grace, I try to encourage the flock by loving them like Christ does. It is my prayer that my ministry and the ministries of our church can be a blessing to you.
