Youth Pastor
It was while David Donaldson was attending youth camp at the age of seventeen that he felt the call of God into youth ministry. He has attended Otter Creek Assembly of God for seven years and has been an active member for more than two. He enjoys playing softball for the church’s tournament team and seeing the youth of Otter Creek Assembly living for God. He and his wife, Brittany, have been married for a year and are now serving as our Interim Youth Pastors. They have a heart for the youth and can’t wait to see what God has in store for their ministry.
Administrative Pastor
Kathy and her husband Don have been married for 37 years. However, they've known each other since they were 12 and 13 - Junior High Sweethearts! Together, they have son named Todd, a daughter-in-law, Priscilla, and one precious grandchild, Julia.
These two are no strangers to how powerful God is. July 10th of last year, Don went in for surgery and ended up in cardiac arrest. He was without a heartbeat for 10 to 13 minutes. Medical personnel did not expect him to survive the night. They prepared the family for the worst. Kathy and Todd stood strong on the scriptures we have all heard so many times. Don not only made it through the night, but he is here today walking, talking, and driving as if nothing happened.
What a warrior of prayer Kathy is! She brings that same warrior spirit to her work here at Otter Creek. We are so blessed to have her as a member of our team.
Business Manager
Mark Brown is the Business Manager for Otter Creek Assembly. Raised in Bryant, Arkansas, he is a huge sports fan and recently married his sweetheart, Mia Deerman. The newlyweds make their home in Benton.
There is not a day that goes by that Mark does not feel incredibly blessed to be working in an environment like Otter Creek Assembly and doing the work that he loves. He is a wonderful asset to our church.
Children's Ministries
Mike and Veronica Waite lead our children's ministries here at OCA. They have been with the Children's Church for 15 years now. Their primary focus is to make sure each child understands that they are unique in their spirit, soul, goals, and dreams. They encourage children to form their own relationship with Jesus and work towards equipping them with the tools to survive today's jungle.
Marketing Manager
Anna Bowman is OCA's marketing manager. She and her husband, Brad, actually had their first date at Otter Creek Assembly more than 14 years ago. Sandra Tracy was instrumental in getting them together - ever the match maker!
Anna and Brad have a daughter, Corley, that is almost two and a brand new baby boy named Cash. They celebrated 10 years of marriage this past July.
They love the people of Otter Creek and feel that God has placed them here, making Otter Creek their home. They are looking forward to raising their family and seeing their kids grow up with a sense of community and support in their faith.
