Don Moorman - Pastor

Don, a native of Indiana, graduated from Concordia Seminary in 1969 and served in ministry at 6 different churches in Arizona and California. Don retired from the ministry in 2005 and he and his wife, Jean, moved to St. Charles Co. They were looking for a church centered on outreach, contemporary in outlook and open to the guidance of the Holy Spirit. One visit to Joy and they decided this was the church they were looking for. Don and Jean have been married since 1989 and between them have five children--three in CA. and 2 in St. Charles Co.--and 7 grandchildren--4 in St. Charles Co. and 3 in CA. Don has had a lifelong love affair with basketball and even with a messed up left knee still tries to take time to shoot baskets several times a week.
