MCC Leadership

We follow the I Timothy 3 and Titus 1 model of leadership

Leadership Model

Medina Community Church is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit entity that is governed according to the Biblical principles in 1 Timothy 3 and Titus 1. The Board of Elders fills the role of shepherds to oversee the body and protect against false doctrine. The deacons are the hands and feet of the church and use their spiritual gifts in all areas of the church to serve the community.

Pastor

I have been blessed to serve as the lead pastor since 2003. I have been married to Anna for 30 years, and we have three adult children. I am dedicated to solid verse-by-verse expository teaching. Nothing has helped me see Jesus more clearly and love Him more deeply that the faithful study and application of His Word. I also love to lead MCC’s Prayer Team, and I am thrilled when the testimonies are given of God’s answers to prayer.

I love being a Dad, and I love my wife of 30 years, Kathleen. As an Elder at MCC, I am enthusiastic about encouraging the Church to reach out to those in need. I believe the Church is the body and not building. I love to see believers grow in their personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

I have been married since 1974 to Nancy. We have three married children and six grandchildren. I served in evangelistic outreach to high school and college students as part of the Young Life staff for five years before a 35-year career selling surgical equipment and supplies. I have previously served as an elder in two San Antonio churches and on boards for two parachurch organizations. I currently serve as an EMT with Medina Volunteer Fire Department and Bandera County Emergency Medical Services.

Travis Klaassen

I have been married to Heidi for more than 30 years, and I have three grown children: Ali Barton, Emmitt Klaassen, and Bethany Baker. I also have been recently blessed with two grandchildren: Jeriah and Teagan. The Church is one of the only multi-generational gatherings left in America. The church is the Body of Christ here on earth. We are a true family and all that comes with it, including grumpy old people, loud infants, and disrespectful young ones. We are learning to become one in Christ! It’s a blast!

Administration

Sherry Lucas

Church Administrator

I have been married to my wonderful husband, Dalton, for more than 50 years. He is my right-hand, and always available to help do those little emergency tasks around the church.

We have two sons, Clinton and Matthew, two wonderful daughters-in-love, Carrie and Heather, and six grown grandchildren. I was in the oil industry for a number of years, but I retired as a College English teacher.

I am also a multiple-generation preacher’s kid and have served churches my entire life in a variety of ways, from administration to Bible teaching, to piano playing, to leading worship.

I am thrilled to be able to serve MCC as the Church Administrator and be a part of what God is doing.

We love this body of Christ, and I am excited to help with the Bible and Education ministry.
