Dave McClellan and his wife Karen, along with a group of volunteers from nearby churches, planted our church in 2004.
Elders
We recognize Christ as the Head of the church and the Scriptures as our primary authority. Elders are men who fit the qualifications of eldership in 1 Timothy 3 and Titus 1 and who have earned the respect of the congregation over time. The elders, who serve in close connection with their spouses, are a vital part of the leadership at the Chapel at Tinkers Creek. Overall spiritual direction and vision come from the elder board.
Elder Board Members

Governing Board
The Chapel at Tinkers Creek is governed by a Governing Board made up of seven members: 6 from the membership, plus the senior pastor. The Governing Board is comprised of both men and women and should represent the church body in terms of demographics, age, and location. Each year at least two of the six rotate off with an equal number of replacements rotating on. Those who have served longer will normally rotate off first so that the normal term is three years. See the Constitution for a full Description
