ASSOCIATE PASTOR
Jeffrey Carl Diedrich

EMAIL
pastor.jeff@verizon.net

Jeff was raised in a Christian home in Lancaster, PA and trusted Christ as a young boy, with his mother’s direction as she walked Jeff through the Roman Road. He felt the tug of God on his heart as a senior in high school to serve the Lord for the rest of his life so he chose to attend Bible college and seminary in order to be a sharper tool in God’s hands. He received his BS in Christian Education from Pillsbury Baptist Bible College, his Master of Divinity in Pastorology from Central Baptist Theological Seminary, and will be completing his final requirement for his Doctorate of Ministry from Dallas Theological Seminary. 

He married Camille in 1998 and they have 5 children. Jeff is a Steelers fan, which is always a plus! When he has time, he enjoys reading, playing strategy board games, playing with his children, being with his wife, and visiting Civil War sites.

Jeff believes that he is called to be an Associate Pastor, his desire is to be involved in Discipleship and Small Groups.
