Westdale Community Church
A Multicultural Church
Our Pastor
|
OUR PASTOR, Jeff Bell, first felt his call to preach when he was 15 years old and began his pastoral ministry in his 20’s following in the footsteps of his grandmother and uncle who were also pastors. Pastor Bell is known for his devotion to prayer and his seeking God on a daily basis. He constantly admonishes his church to pray and to seek God for direction and healing. Pastor Bell also has a vision to reach out to the community with the love of Christ. He believes that one of the main missions of the church is to meet needs in the community and, by doing so, people will see God’s love manifested through the church. When the church changed their name to Westdale Community Church, Pastor Bell reminded the church that we will not be a “Community Church” in name only but more importantly in action. He often says “when people drive by and see our name, we want them to say that is a church that really does care about the community.” Pastor Bell has Associate Degrees in Accounting and Business Administration, a Bachelors and Master of Divinity degree through Andersonville Theological Seminary, and is a Licensed Pastoral Counselor. He is author of the book "Did I Just Say That? The Powerful Influence of Words." His wife, Tammy, is a great support to his ministry and they have a daughter, Brianna.
