Who we are
We Exist to Make More and Better Disciples by the Gospel for the Glory of God. We are a church that is pursuing a love for God, a love for those who are already seeking to be fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ, and a love for those who are yet to join us on this journey. These pursuits drive us as we study Scripture, worship, pray, and meet in small groups. In all of these we are seeking to experience the presence of God. We’d love to have you join us on this wonderful pursuit.

Passions & Hobbies
I enjoy walking, which gives me a good excuse/reason to play numerous rounds of golf every spring and summer.
Life Changing Moment
Receiving Christ as Savior at the end of junior high school. I was in church every Sunday, and never missed a youth group meeting in three years. I was trained and taught a Sunday school class, and witnessed and led others to Christ before I received Him for myself.
What I want my Legacy to be
I want my legacy to be that my children and grandchildren walk closely with the Lord.
People who had a Significant Impact on my Life
My cousin, Floyd Wheeler, who served on a short term mission team and began preaching at age 16. We spent many years ministering together before I moved to Rochester.
People would be Surprised to know that…
I played trombone in band in elementary and junior high school.
Family
I was raised by a single Mom, along with an older brother, David, and a younger sister, Darlene. My oldest two brothers did not live with the three of us for most of our growing years.
I have been married to Cheryl for 43 years and we have four children; one who we never got to meet due to a miscarriage, Cheri’ who died after living only two days, Denis Jr. who is married and has two children, and Deanna. Denis and Deanna live in Gates.
Favorite Music
I grew up listening to and singing hymns, which I still love today. I enjoy listening to classical music, the Beethoven being my favorite, and I love contemporary gospel music.
Favorite Sports Team
All Philadelphia professional teams, with the Eagles leading the way as my favorite.
Education
I graduated from high school in Philadelphia, Pa.
Attended the recently closed Grace University in Omaha, NE
Graduated from Monroe Community College, AA
University of Rochester, BA and one year of grad school in history
Northeastern Seminary, MA

Add a historical photo

Jesus, the Light of the World, as we celebrate your birth... may we begin to see the world in the light of understanding you give us. As you chose the lowly, the outcasts, and the poor to receive the greatest news the world had ever known, so may we worship you in meekness of heart. May we also remember our brothers and sisters less fortunate than ourselves in this season of giving. Amen.
