I was born and raised in the BHCC church and have been blessed to be a part of the family here and God's work through His Kingdom here. I have had the privilege to serve in many different roles here at the Church. Some of those roles include working as the Youth Minister for over 10 years and having a ball doing it. I have served on the board or for over 22 years and just about any other hat one can wear as a part of the body of Christ.

I have been a part of BHCC since the late '80s and I have been attending with my wife, Beth We have two children, Maddie and Perry. In so many different ways, I have had the opportunity to develop and cultivate relationships with this community. I feel blessed to have the opportunity to serve this community. I was also blessed, along with my wife Beth, to serve as youth leaders here for many years. I had the opportunity to watch so many Middle and High School students grow in their faith and knowledge of Jesus. I currently serve as an Elder of this community.

I grew up in Bluff City, TN in the Bunker Hill community. I am married to my wife of thirty-one years, Lisa. We are blessed with a daughter Amanda, a son-in-law Austin and a grandson, Lincoln. I have been an active part of BHCC for thirty years. During that time, I have served on many teams and committees that serve and pray for the mission and vision of the church. I had the honor to spend many of those years as a youth sponsor and teacher, as well. I am thankful for the opportunities I have had to build relationships with the youth in the area and share Christ's love with them. I look forward to how God will use me in the work of His continuing Kingdom here at BHCC and throughout the world.

Don Scalf
Elder
I have attended BHCC all of my life and most of it with my wife, Pat. I have had the blessing to serve in many facets of the church including teacher, deacon, and yes-even as a softball coach. I currently have the honor to serve the church as an elder which I have done in different rotations for over twenty-two years. I have had the opportunity to see God lead BHCC to do many great things for this community and I am excited to be apart of what He is continuing to do in the future. I am blessed with four grandchildren and three great- grandchildren who I love to spend time with.

I have been part of BHCC since March 2023, along with my wife, Rebecca. We moved here from Desert Hills, Arizona, after our daughter moved to Bristol, Tennessee.
For the past three years, we have been blessed with the opportunity to serve in the kitchen, providing meals for our children and youth programs. My wife and I have also enjoyed serving alongside many others as small group leaders and being part of the fellowship and community at BHCC.
Throughout the different places we have lived, we have had the opportunity to serve in many church ministries. I have a heart for serving others and enjoy watching people grow in their relationship with Christ, as well as sharing the hope and knowledge of Christ with those who do not yet know Him.
Rebecca and I are blessed with two children and four grandchildren, and we love spending time with our family.
Fun Fact: We have lived in four different states and two different countries!
