Our Leadership

  • Senior Pastor,  TJ Turner

    I'm TJ Turner, senior pastor of Woodbury Community Church. I originally grew up south of Atlanta, Georgia, and met my wife Kerstin in college. I went to seminary at Reformed Theological Seminary in Charlotte, North Carolina, where our daughter was born. After Seminary, God took us north, starting in Massachusetts, where our son was born, and eventually to Minnesota. Our family time is mostly divided between music and hockey, and we're happy to call Woodbury our home. More than that, we're excited to see God work at WCC, bringing the power of the Gospel into our lives and our community.
