Our Pastor
Chris Schlotterbeck: Vineyard Lead Pastor; Vineyard East Region Youth Coordinator
Our Story
Our family is back in Hagerstown after four years in Syracuse, NY where Chris served as a staff pastor at the Syracuse Vineyard. During this time he oversaw children, youth, and college ministries. Chris also served in the area of sound, "The Furnace", and many building and facility responsibilities. While in Syracuse, God challenged us to accept and invite all people to develop a relationship with Jesus, and to think about Church as a place where everyone is accepted. This can happen by showing all people the unconditional love and grace of Jesus without any reservations because of their lifestyle or religious background. Our heart is that no one would feel that they are not worthy of the love of Christ. We are teachers and enjoy challenging groups or individuals in a radical God-centered lifestyle.
God has now directed us back home with a vision for the Hub City Vineyard. A place where people can "come as they are" and be loved! Our vision is to build real community by being a part of people's lives because we truly care for them. We believe that within this community God will empower each person to live out a life that is uniquely his or hers. We want to impact Washington County with the life changing truth, hope, and love found in Christ. Our family looks forward to the chance of meeting you!
