Church Leadership.

  • Bradley Helgerson (elder/pastor)

    Since his dramatic conversion from agnosticism at age 33, Bradley Helgerson has been dedicated to the proclamation of the gospel. Both in the pulpit and on the pages of Christian journals, he has pleaded not only for reconciliation between God and his fallen creation, but for doctrinal rapprochement within Christendom.

    As Minister of the Word, he loves having a front row seat to the spectacle of God's salvation, witnessing the revitalizing effects of redemption: the oppressed liberated, the blind given sight, and the poor made prosperous.

    Bradley and his wife Pamela have five children and live in a fixer-upper in Old Town.

  • Darren Thomas (elder)

    Converted in his early 30s, Darren has been a believer for over 40 years. He currently serves as treasurer and board president for Church on the Square.

    Now a retired engineer, Darren was previously Vice President and General Manager of the multi-billion-dollar Flash Memory Division at Micron Inc. He also served as Vice President and GM of storage services at Dell Technologies and 15 years prior to that at Compaq Computer Corporation. He is a former officer and pilot in the U.S. Air Force.

    Along with his faithful wife Judy, he has 2 children who are faithful church members, as well as several grandchildren.

Qualifications of Overseers

This is a faithful saying: If a man desires the position of overseer, he desires a good work. An overseer then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, temperate, sober-minded, of good behavior, hospitable, able to teach; not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for money, but gentle, not quarrelsome, not covetous; one who rules his own house well, having his children in submission with all reverence (for if a man does not know how to rule his own house, how will he take care of the church of God?); not a novice, lest being puffed up with pride he fall into the same condemnation as the devil. Moreover he must have a good testimony among those who are outside, lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.

Qualifications of Deacons

Likewise, deacons must be reverent, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not greedy for money, holding the mystery of the faith with a pure conscience. But let these also first be tested; then let them serve as deacons, being found blameless. Likewise, their wives must be reverent, not slanderers, temperate, faithful in all things. Let deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well. For those who have served well as deacons obtain for themselves a good standing and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.
