Brian Hardesty (Lead pastor)
Brian considers it a privilege and a joy to be called to the work of the ministry. He has served as the lead pastor at Valley Community Church since 2016. He has been blessed to be the husband of his precious bride Jamie and to be the father of five wonderful children. Born and raised in the Pacific Northwest, he is accustomed to the rain, the temperate climate, and the flannels.
But all of that is insignificant in comparison to what is true about his eternal identity. He counts himself a sinner who has been mercifully saved by the grace of Jesus Christ. In the early 2000’s, Jesus snatched him from the grip of the evil one and adopted him as His own. A few years later, Brian felt called to proclaim the gospel to Jesus’ church in vocational ministry.
There is no better life to live, than a life that is Christ’s as Paul says in Philippians 1:21 and Galatians 2:20. Brian knows he’s a blessed man! Hallelujah! What a Savior!

Dan Flanagan (Associate Pastor)
God has blessed me with the ability to serve this body of believers. With everything that I have, I will be the husband, father, pastor, and follower of Christ that I am called to be. I spend most of my time investing into discipleship relationships with young men, parents, and youth.
I am the husband to my beautiful wife Bree and father to our two children: Juliette and Lil' Dan. We are pregnant with our third child and feel blessed that God has called us to minister to and live life alongside this gathering of the saints! God is good!
