LEADERSHIP
Mike Joyce
Elder
Mike and Dolores became members of ACC in 2000 and immediately began working with our church kids by teaching the cubbies in our AWANA program. They both love working with our children and continue to do so in a variety of ways.
Mike is a retired wildlife biologist and Dolores a retired office administrator. They are from the same small home town in Indiana, went to the same high school, attended the same small church in their little town, and were married there in 1968. They spent the last 27 years of their careers in Anchorage Alaska before building their retirement home in the Applegate Valley. Now they enjoy spending their time serving for their church and growing and processing most of their own food. Mike continues to teach an adult Sunday School class and the Truth and Training boys class for AWANA.
Bill Zimmerman
Elder
Bill became a Christian at the age of 16 by God's grace alone and has now walked with him for 53 years. He graduated from Multnomah School of the Bible and did a short term mission with TEAM in Europe. Upon his return, He graduated from Western Oregon, taught school and moved to southern Oregon and started attending ACC in 1985.
Since then Bill has ministered at the Medford Gospel Rescue Mission for 20 years, ran the AWANA program with his wife, Mary, for 15 years, and taught adult Bible classes through most of that time.
Bill desires to love Christ more and to help ACC be unified in the faith and of the knowledge of the son of God - to become mature people, attaining to the measure of Christ's full stature.
