Leadership

Pastor & Deacons

Pray for our Search Committee 

  

Please be in prayer as we search for a new  Under Shepherd.   We believe that God has a man already chosen for this role and pray that He will guide us to that person.

Mr. Greg McKinney

Head Deacon/Custodian/ Music Director

Greg has attended Altapass since birth.  While his occupation was in law enforcement, his heart was in serving God.  He took advantage of the witness field his job provided.  Music is very important in the McKinney household.  Greg's wife, Debbie, is our piano player and the best VBS teacher of all time.  Greg's favorite Bible verse is:  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.  John 3:16

Mr. Charlie Hughes

Deacon/Sunday School Teacher

Charlie is our eldest and wisest deacon.  He is soft spoken and carries a pocket full of candy (and all the children know it).  He has been a member of Altapass for decades and we love him dearly.  Everybody knows Charlie and Charlie knows everybody.  His favorite Bible verse is:  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.  John 3:16

Mr. Gregg Henline

Deacon/Sunday School Director

Gregg is an introvert but don't let that fool you!  He is one strong Soldier for the Lord.  In addition to his role in our church, he and his wife, Lisa, are very active with the Gideon organization.  He may not say a lot but when he talks, we listen.  Also, he has "a merry heart that doeth good like a medicine."  His favorite Bible verse is:  I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. Philippians 4:13

Mr. David Hughes

Deacon/Jack of All Trades

David and his wife, Diane, are invaluable to us.  He is a Gideon and a volunteer fireman.  When he isn't working at the fire department, he is working at the church, or at home or somebody else's home.  He's just working, with a smile, all the time.  If something needs fixing we "tell David."  His favorite Bible verse is an entire chapter:  Luke 5.  (He does like to fish).

Mr. Mitchell Allen

Deacon/Sunday School Teacher

Mitchell is our UNC Chapel Hill fan.  Every church has one.  But seriously, he is our financial guidance guy whether he wants to be or not.  Nobody likes a budget but Mitchell presents us with one every year like clockwork.  He has extensive Bible knowledge and is one of the best Sunday School teachers around.  His wife, Wendy, is a nurse that shares her loving care gladly with anyone who needs it.  His favorite Bible verse is:  I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. Philippians 4:13

Mr. Richard Crouse

Deacon/Technology Problem Fighter

Richard wears many hats at Altapass.  He teaches Sunday School and is the assistant music director but where he really puts on the cape is with technology.  We have technological issues.  Who doesn't, right?  Richard is our go-to guy.  If he can't fix it then he knows a guy.  He is married to Anna.  She uses and abuses this technology so it's usually her call he answers.  His favorite Bible verse is:  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.  John 3:16
