ELDERS

The goal of our church leaders has always been to humbly and prayerfully guide and support the individuals & families that God has placed in our care.  If you want to contact he elders for any reason email them at elders@nbcfamily.com. Our current Elder Board includes:

  • Jerry Horst

    Bio coming soon...

  • Dave Shank

    Dave and his wife, Cynthia, have been attending NBC since 2001.  Dave grew up in the Shenandoah Valley with parents who faithfully instilled in him an understanding of the place and importance of faith, work, family and fun.  At the age of 12, Dave answered God's call on his life and accepted Christ as his Savior.  While attending Montevideo High School, he was greatly influenced by the Athletic Director who walked his faith in a public school setting.  

     

    Dave went to school for what seemed like forever... and eventually became a life guard (doctor).  In the middle of the forever schooling process he met and married Cynthia—with whom, by virtue of a close collaboration, found themselves the parents of four sons.  Faith, work, family and fun were mainstays in their home.  If having fun required some risk-taking, Dave was all in!  He usually allowed it, sometimes encouraged it, and often participated in it.  Serving on the Elder Board at NBC has been a direct result of God's repeated call on Dave's life.  It has provided him the opportunity to understand in detail such matters as obedience, accountability, humility, perseverance, loyalty and faithfulness.
