Darrell was raised here in Bucks County where he spent the bulk of his childhood, but not all of it. Darrell hails from an extremely-musically gifted family wherein they served the Lord together by traveling and performing concerts. They also spent two years serving as missionaries in Kenya. It was during his family’s time in East Africa when Darrell was in the 10th grade that he committed his life to following Christ. 

Darrell’s natural and sincere passion for the Lord as well as his musical gifts from the Lord are evident the moment you see him on the stage as he exhorts the congregation to enter into worship together. He considers it a “privilege to worship and lead others each week into God’s holy presence.” Darrell and his wife, Mindy, have three kids: Brooke, Ethan and Jenna.

His favorite verse is Psalm 37:4, ”Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart.” And if you know Darrell, you know he not only loves this verse but lives it as well.

Jay hails from Chittenango, NY, and came to Christ at a young age after talking with a relative about heaven and hell. “I took seriously my life as a disciple of Christ in high school after attending a Fellowship of Christian Athletes camp with one of my high school teachers. All he did was become a friend and invite me. I went, and it changed my life,” says Jay, and is a firm believer in the statement, “All of us need to invite more and leave the results with God.”

Having graduated from Houghton College and Dallas Seminary, Jay served as lead pastor for 21 years at a local congregation. Regarding his role at Grace Point, Jay says, “What I enjoy most about serving Christ at Grace Point is meeting with men, seeing them get saved, seeing them get rooted and grounded in the Word of God and seeing them begin to serve Christ in their home, their work and church.”

Jay and Kim have three adult sons: Jon Eric, Jeremy and Joshua.

Jay’s life verse is Galatians 2:20, “I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.”

After a brief time at Millersville University studying Meteorology, God called Jeremy to Student Ministry. He later transferred to Lancaster Bible College, where he graduated with a degree in Student Ministries and Biblical Studies.

While Jeremy and Tara were good friends, it wasn’t until they started serving together in ministry that their romance blossomed which led to their marriage in 2013. They have two children, Mercy and Elias, and are grateful for the opportunity to partner in ministry to disciple our middle school and high school students.

While being with his family is his favorite way to spend time, Jeremy’s other hobbies include playing tennis, golf and football, enjoying a good cup of coffee and being outdoors around a campfire or grill. His love for meteorology and astronomy haven’t waned, but his greatest joy is working with teens and seeing them grow in Christlikeness.
