Leadership & staff

Frank has been with New Community Church since the spring of 2007. He's a graduate of the University of Illinois Chicago and Moody Theological Seminary. Initially serving as Worship Director, he now oversees discipleship and the overall vision of the church. Through active involvement in discipleship, accountability, and bible study groups, Frank is convinced that people must commit to the local church, grow in serving, seek restoration in all of our relationships, and replicate as disciples of Jesus Christ, so that we can fulfill the Great Commission as commanded by Jesus.

Frank is married to his wife, Linda, and they have a son, Ethan, and daughter, Jayden.

Phil has been with New Community since 2012 and joined the staff in March of 2017. As Director of Worship, he oversees the worship committee which is comprised of the praise team, welcoming team, creative arts team, fellowship team, and open prayer ministry. Since the age of 13, it's been Phil's dream to be a worship pastor, and he is grateful to be part of a church that prioritizes worship as a choice and lifestyle.

Phil has been married to his wife, Annie, since November of 2015, and they have two bundles of joy: PJ & EJ.
