John-Gregory Farrell began
serving as the Sr. Pastor of Bay Area Presbyterian in November
of 2004.
A native New Yorker and former
police officer, John-G. came to know Christ in a personal and
saving way in 1985 and sensed a call to the ministry three years
later through a new found love of the Scripture.
Prior to his arrival in Clear
Lake, Pastor John-G. was privileged to be part of the ministry team
which planted Christ Church, a PCA congregation on the west side
of Houston in Katy. He has also served churches in South
Carolina as both a youth pastor and senior minister.
An alumnus of Nyack College (BA
Philosophy), Alliance Theological Seminary (MA Old Testament
Studies), and Greenville Presbyterian Theological Seminary (M.Div/
Th.M), John-G.’s passion for Scripture today finds expression
through his expository preaching/teaching ministry where you
will find a sprinkling of allusions to many of his interests:
sports, food, history and popular culture.
Married in 1987, John-G’s wife
Kim is also a graduate of Nyack College and the New School for
Social Research in Greenwich Village New York. John-G. and Kim
share their home with their four beautiful children Katie Beth
(a cello performance major at Baylor University), CJ ( a
sophomore at Clear Lake HS), Molly (age 13), and DJ (the
rambunctious 6 year old). John-G. enjoys music, sports, reading,
sailing, and is an inveterate Astros fan.
