Wesley Allen is the pastor of Central Baptist Church. He is deeply in love with Jesus Christ, and has a passion for teaching, creative worship, all things computers, and science fiction. If you're not sure how all these things fit together in a pastor, don't worry, neither is he. One thing is certain though, when you think to pick a "pastor" out in a room, Wes isn't the first person you'd pick - which is just fine with him. Wes has a lovely wife named Jen, and two great children, without whom he'd probably forget to feed himself. To e-mail Wes please click here .

Marueen Perkins is our Church secretary. Got something for the calendar? Take it to Maureen. Got something for the bulletin? Take it to Maureen. Want to know what's going on in the Church? Talk to Maureen. Want to get the kids out of the house and have someone else feed them a snack? Take them to the office, Maureen loves kids!

Karen Merrill is the choir director and sign-language interpretor at Central Baptist. She is quick to laugh, has a wonderful heart for compelling worship. She is always on the lookout for more voices to fill the choir but if you can't sing, don't worry, she'll love you anyway.

Colleen Cosgrove is Central's organist. She can often be found near Karen, waiting patiently as the Choir is busy having yet another laughing fit. Colleen is a lovely person, but she does have perfect pitch which makes some people jealous. When Colleen isn't at Central she can be found on stage at a community theatre near you!

Todd Johnson is a man of many talents - his only problem is deciding which ones to use at any given time. As such, Todd will often play the guitar, harmonica, and a sequencer at the same time. This is usually as he plays another of his bluegrass favorites. Oh yeah, Todd also plays the music for us during out "blended" worship Sundays.

Naomi Horn is the gracious and talented woman who runs "Praise Ringers," our bell choir. She does a great job with this group, and has played some songs that you'd never think to play with a bell choir in a million years!
