Frank Wray: Senior Pastor

I have had the privilege of pastoring BCC for the past 15 years. I am a graduate of Dallas Theological Seminary (M.A.B.S.) and Talbot School of Theology (M.Div). I have a lovely wife named Susan and three beautiful daughters: Debra, Christy and Laura. My favorite hobbies are reading, sports and teaching.

 

 

Bobby Gambelunghe: Youth Pastor

I came to this church as a small guy. At the age of 12 I went astray, but after years of living away from God, He not only brought me back to Himself but He brought me back to the church of my childhood. I spent 4 years at Columbia Bible College learning God's Word and preparing myself for full-time ministry. I have been at BCC for 9 years as the Youth Pastor. I met my beautiful wife Mindy here at BCC 8 years ago and we have been married for 6 years. We were blessed with a son named Caleb whose nick name is the "beaner." My hobbies are music, baseball card collecting, softball, and playing guitar.

J.J. Jeune: Pastor, Director of Discipleship

I have walked in the blessing of service to the Body of Christ from the time of my conversion on December 5, 1981. I served in church leadership as a deacon in the very church where Christ became the Savior and Lord of my life; then our Lord raised me up to the position of elder, allowing me to love and serve at even a higher level. My life in Christ Jesus has been a time of serving, going, and growing. I have enjoyed the privilege of pastoral ministry in three churches since the call of God upon my life. In that time I have been awarded a Bachelor of Theology Degree from Vision Christian Bible College and Seminary and currently am seeking my Master's Degree in Theology. My life's greatest passions are prayer, evangelism/discipleship and serving the people of our local church. I am married to my lovely wife Judy and am blessed with three children, Kristi, Thomas and Michael.

                                                 Brother David Eames: Associate Pastor

It is my privilege to be part of the staff here at Bethlehem Community Church. It was long ago - November of 1974 - when I bowed my hairy head in prayer while sitting at a kitchen table with friends in an apartment in downtown Albany, NY and I simply asked Jesus to help me. He did and He changed my life forever.  After being active in the ministry for several years in Birmingham, Alabama and then for over two decades in a little church in Bowling Green, Virginia, the Lord directed my steps back to upstate New York in 2005. It is glory to walk with the King! Let's walk together!  I enjoy teaching, preaching, loving, laughing, writing, editing, singing, praying, eating macaroni & cheese, playing piano & tenor recorder, and tickling my grandchildren.
