Dean Tsiolkas - Senior PastoR

I have been in full-time ministry since 2000. I was the Singles and Young Adult Minister at First Christian Church in Kernersville from 2000 until 2006, and was the Pastoral Care Minister from 2006 until 2009. I felt the Lord's calling to take the position as Senior Minister here at First Christian Church in High Point in August of 2009. I grew up in the Greek Orthodox Church. Both of my parents were born in Greece, which means I can speak Greek fluently (with an occasional added English word to help finish some sentences). I have been married to my beautiful wife, Tracy, for 20 years (I adore and love her and yes we had a big fat Greek wedding). We have 3 awesome children: Helena, Haley, and Dimitrios (I treasure and love them). I love sports, reading, having solitude time with God, and reaching people with the gospel of Jesus Christ. One of my favorite Bible verses is Zephaniah 3:17.
