Reverend Joe & Jennifer Vinette, Senior Pastor

Pastor Joe and Jennifer are both graduates of the University of Valley Forge 2002-2006. After graduation Joe went on to receive a Masters of Divinity from Ashland Theological Seminary 2006-2009.

Since then they have served in many ministry positions, have lead missions trips, spoke in juvenile prison facilities, schools and universities, and even had a radio program.

In 2017, Joe published his first book “Hero Status: Living Every Day Bolder Than Ever.” As a family we are passionate about Jesus.

We believe that we need to grow a church that loves Gods Word and experiences the greatness of Gods presence in every environment. We are excited to meet you and partner with you as we journey together as a church and a community.

AssOCIATE Pastor David & Gail Dalmaso

I accepted Christ many years ago, in 1998 I had a radical encounter with the Holy Spirit which changed everything.

Since that point in time my wife Gail and I were sensing a call to the prophetic and attended Bill Hammond's School of Prophetic Ministry in Destin, Florida.

I also attended the Faith Chapel School of Ministry. My wife Gail and I came to Encounter Christian Fellowship (formerly First Christian Assembly) in 2007 and with the exception of a two year break in order to help with a local church plant we've been a fixture here at Encounter Christian Fellowship.

We have two married daughters and eight grandchildren. We're excited to see whatGod has in store for this body of believers!
