Grace Bible Church strives to be faithful to what the Bible teaches about church leadership. We are an autonomous local body of believers, led by a plurality of elders. According to God's Word, we believe the role of pastor and elder is to be filled by men who meet the criteria in 1 Timothy and Titus. Also according to Scriptural instruction and example, we believe the role of deacon is to be filled by men and women who meet the requirements in 1 Timothy and Titus.
Micah Gelatt | Elder, Teaching Pastor
Micah is married to Johanna, and they have 7 children. His greatest joys are time with his family, and teaching others to think from a Biblical worldview and grow deeply rooted in the study of God's Word. He is an ardent Kansas City Chiefs fan who loves time with a chainsaw or hiking through God's amazing creation.
Mark and his wife Lesley are the proud parents of 7 adult children. Mark is a lifelong Alaskan, and has a passion for God's Word. In addition, Mark loves discipling and mentoring other men to live out their calling and role as Godly men pursuing Jesus.
Barry and Katie Yancosek | Deacons
Barry and Katie are the proud parents of 2 adult children, Josh and Will. Although newer to the Alaskan valley, they have a deep love for the outdoors, hunting, fishing, fellow military veterans, and to see people following after Jesus. Their desire to serve the needs of others is infectious.
