Our Leadership

Lead Pastor

Pastor Scott is a youth ministry veteran of 18 years. He now serves as the Lead Pastor, after having been on staff as Associate Pastor (youth, worship) at our church since early 2014.  Having served at both newly-planted and established churches of various sizes, he has been blessed to learn from excellent pastors. A rabid fan of the Boston Red Sox, Scott holds a Bachelors degree in Community Ministry from Geneva College and is an ordained minister through the General Council of the Assemblies of God.

He is married to the love of his life and most amazing woman in the world, Rebekah. He and Bekah have four children: Tyler, Kyle, Ayden and Shayna.

Children's Pastor

Pastor Rachel was born and raised in Hazleton, PA. At the age of 21 she felt God's call on her life to lead the children to Him. She has partnered with several Children's Pastor's over the years that have helped her knowledge of and love for children's ministry grow. Her desire is to continue to follow God's lead in the way she runs ministry and the way she lives out the call on her life.
 
She is married to her best friend and side kick Andrew Groome. As their love for one another continues to grow, so does their family. They have a boy, and a baby girl on the way.

Youth Pastor

Pastor Zach is a graduate of the University of Valley Forge with a degree in Youth and Family Studies. He grew up in Northern Vermont with his mother, father, grandmother, and brother. Zach has been passionately pursuing God’s calling on his life since he was 14 years old. He has been so excited to see how God is moving at Berwick Assembly and through all of the teenagers at 1Eighty Student Ministries!

He has been married to his wonderful wife and partner in ministry, Nikita, since 2022.
