Staff + leadership

Here for you

First off, we want God to lead everything we do here. Pastor Austin Dyekman heads up the team, but it takes the whole crew to make things happen.

Led by the Leadership Team

The leadership team, led by the Lead Pastor, manages the church's daily operations and spiritual life. They support the congregation, foster a vibrant spiritual climate, and work alongside the elders to serve and represent the church.

Spiritually supported by Elders

Our Elders provide spiritual covering: prayer support, wise counsel, and encouragement for the pastoral team and congregation. They provide a prayer shield for the members, defend the integrity of the church, pray for the sick, and represent the church to the community.

Strengthened by Trustees

Our Trustees are members of the congregation appointed to oversee the finances and direct the provision of the facilities needed by the church. They provide financial accountability and counsel to the Lead Pastor, staff, and ministries.

Protected by Overseers

The Overseers are retired and current pastors of respected congregations who love Good Shepherd Church and provide spiritual guidance, strength, and protection, available to help in any emergency or accountability matters if requested by the Elders or Trustees.
