tom editTom Mansbarger: Senior Pastor                               
I graduated from Eastbrook High School in 1970. I married my childhood sweetheart, Diane and we have been married 50 years. We have two sons Jeff and Tim, five grandchildren, and one great grandchild. I was a pipe-fitter, and in 1980 the Lord pressed on my heart that I needed to be doing something else. The idea of becoming a pastor was beyond a foreign idea, but the Lord continued to work on my heart and I wasn’t content until I did it. I then earned a B.A. in Pastoral Ministry, a Masters in Pastoral Counseling from Luther Rice Seminary, and a Doctorate of Theology from International Seminary. In 1993, we decided to start Grace Community Church, where I am still serving as the pastor.
mark editMark Hummel: Associate Pastor                               
I was born in Winchester, IN, went to Huntington College which is where I met my wife of 40 years, Lynne. I became an electrician in 1977.  My wife and I shared a wonderful experience on December 2, 1984, we were both saved by the grace of God, at a small church in south Marion, where we continued to serve for 20 years. We were later blessed with a daughter in 1989, who is also a member of GCC and is a currently a RN. Then in 1998, I was ordained to minister the Gospel. We came to Grace Community Church in 2004, where we are currently blessed to be serving as Associate Pastor.

I am a native of Marion, Indiana, and a 2013 graduate of Moody Bible Institute (Chicago, IL). My wife Melissa and I met at Twin City Church in Marion where I had my internship after graduating college. At the age of thirteen I felt the Lord’s calling on my life to full-time pastoral ministry and I have prayed since high school about serving at a church in my hometown of Marion. Joining staff at Grace was one of the biggest answers to prayer the Lord has ever given me. Melissa and I are the proud parents of three cats, one dog, and our beautiful baby girl, Willow. I love sports, playing guitar, good coffee, and dad jokes. I am currently pursing my MDiv at Indianapolis Theological Seminary.

I was born and raised in Grant County, graduating from Oak Hill High School and Indiana Wesleyan University.  After working in the business field for several years, I accepted the Lord’s call to vocational ministry in 1993.  It has been my privilege to serve in local church ministry for over 20 years.  Joining the staff at Grace Community Church in September of 2019 was a real joy and I am grateful to serve at such a loving, Bible-centered fellowship of believers.  I also have served as a missions representative with Gospelink Ministries (www.gospelink.org) since 2007, overseeing Gospelink’s church planting work in the SE Asian nations of Vietnam and Cambodia.  In 1988, my beautiful wife Sunnie, and I were married.  God has blessed us with six children and two grandchildren.  Our vision is to see Grace Community Church continue to impact our community and the world by training disciples who are missional about living and proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ.  My hobbies include basketball, board games, and watching sports, especially my beloved Bears.
