We are pleased to share an unexpected and exciting step in God’s providence for the Fresno church plant.

As you know, Aaron Logan, Brendan Tomassian, and the core team were originally preparing to plant Shepherd’s Bible Church in Fresno this October. Over the last few weeks, they have received a call to instead unite in a work of renewal with Redemption Bible Church (RBC) in Fresno. Through much prayer and counsel, Aaron and Brendan have decided to lead their team to pursue this new opportunity.

Lord-willing, at the culmination of a candidating process over the next several weeks, Aaron will be stepping into the role of Lead Pastor and Brendan will be serving as Executive Pastor. They are excited to be working alongside their Core Team as well as Redemption’s existing elders and congregation to lead the church into its next chapter.

Aaron, Brendan, and the Grace Church of the Valley elders believe this may serve as a significant advancement to the original goal of a stand-alone local church while aligning with RBC’s leadership needs. Please join us in praying for Aaron and Brendan, their families, the core team members, and Redemption Bible Church during this process.
