Pastor Andy
Crossgrove
I was brought up in the church and
trusted Christ as my Lord and Savior early in life. In 1988, an itinerant speaker came to my
church and challenged the congregation to commit everything to God. That
Sunday evening I committed myself to being completely obedient to God by
doing whatever God called me to do, wherever God wanted me to
go, whenever God spoke. After graduating from High School, I pursued
further Biblical training. I received his Bachelor of Arts degree in
Biblical Studies from The King's College in 1993, and began studying at
Biblical Theological Seminary that Autumn. It was in 1993 that I was hired
as the part-time Youth Director at Faith Bible Fellowship Church. In June
of 1994, I married Alicia, who has been a great support and partner in
ministry. In 1997, I received my Masters of Divinity from Biblical
Theological Seminary, and was hired to be the full-time Pastor of Youth
Ministries at Faith. In 2003, there was a lot of
transition in our church, and in my ministry responsibilities. I had the privilege to preach on a regular basis, to build relationships, and
be the pastor for people of all ages in our congregation. In 2006,
Faith Bible Fellowship Church called me to serve as the Sr. Team Pastor. God has blessed my wife and
me with two beautiful
daughters, Ariana and Alexa, and we are in the process of adopting another
daughter. We feel privileged to be used of God to touch
lives, and look to the years ahead committing ourselves to the
Lord to do whatever, wherever, and whenever He leads.

Pastor Mike Walker
I grew up in the small town in Potter County,
PA where my mom took my brother and I to a nearby church. I am
grateful for the influence of my mom, a pastor and a Sunday
school teacher that challenged me about the Lord and my need for
a relationship with Him. As I became a teen my language, how I
treated others and my attitude toward……everything was far less
than glorifying. When I was about 16 years old God was
convicting me of my sin and put a longing in my heart that was
not being met in the things of this world. I trusted in Christ
for salvation and He began to change my life. While at Creation
’94 I knew the Lord was calling me into youth ministry. Though I
struggled with this calling for a time, God renewed my passion
for ministry as I served at a summer camp. I graduated from
Geneva College in ‘99 with a Bachelors degree in Christian
Ministries and later that year married my wife, JoAnna. Since
then I’ve served as the Director of a teen center, Youth Leader
and Counselor at an alternative school’s day treatment program.
The Lord has blessed us with two wonderful daughters, Emma and
Michala. God continually shows Himself faithful to us and we
seek to grow in the Lord and serve Him with our lives all for
His glory.
