Pastor Tim and Donna met and married in Liberty, MO. They are both graduates of Full Faith Bible College in Kansas City. Tim enjoyed a successful career as a District Sales Manager before answering the call to full time pastoral ministry in 1996 to a small church in North Dakota. He was called by Calvary Church to serve as senior pastor in 2001. Tim and Donna have raised five daughters, four serving in the ministry with their husbands. All five are actively involved in ministry.

Tim and Donna love to spend as much time as possible at family get-togethers with their ten grandchildren. Tim enjoys an occasional golf game with friends, board games, old movies, and mysteries. Donna enjoys sewing, card making, board games, personal inductive Bible studies, and reading. Both enjoy serving in the pastoral ministry, the companionship of good friends who share their faith and love for ministry, and occasional camping trips.
