    Pastor Dave Thomas

Prior to beginning their work in Champaign/Urbana, Dave and Sherry Thomas were a part of Westminster Presbyterian Church (PCA) in Lancaster, PA and The Covenant Presbyterian Church (PCA) in St. Louis. Sherry has worked as a healthcare professional, mostly in home care. Dave had a 28-year career as a corporate financial professional before leaving in 1999 for Covenant Theological Seminary in St. Louis.

The Thomases come to church planting after a lifetime of ministry in a variety of contexts. A hallmark of their lives together has been one of ministry to youth and younger people, beginning in a coffee house ministry near a major east coast university, and later in church youth ministries. They have pursued their passion to see God's Kingdom extended through a uniting of the generations to build the church.
