Staff

Ferrysburg Community Church is led by a group of elders and deacons that make up our Council.  Our staff also equips and coordinates our congregation for ministry.

Nate Visker, Pastor

Nate has been the pastor at FCC since 2004, when he moved here from Durham, NC. He grew up in Kalamazoo and attended Calvin College and Seminary. Nate and his wife, Sara, have three college-aged children. He enjoys backpacking, running, and laughing. His favorite part about being a pastor at FCC is the front row seat he gets to see God at work in people's lives.  Click here to send Nate an email.
