Ron Clement
The Lord called me in 2001 to serve as the founding pastor of Calvary Chapel Rockingham located in
Plaistow, NH. His primary call on my ministry was ”for the equipping of the saints for the work of
ministry … ” Ephesians 4: 11-12 Throughout my tenure as Sr: Pastor; I’ve had the joy of being used
by the Lord to raise up pastors, teachers and other leaders for the work of ministry, not only here in
Southern NH, but in Haiti as well. Recently, the Lord has called my wife and I to leave CC
Rockingham and move to Maine, where we are currently involved in a new church plant in the
Sacopee Valley region of Southwestern Maine. The Lord is certainly moving in this area and once
again, we are blessed that He’s called us to be a part of this work that He is doing
Chris Funk
Chris Funk is the Senior Pastor at Calvary Chapel Apache Junction in sunny Arizona, where he and
his family have been joyfully serving the Lord since 2002. It has been their desire to grow in the grace
and knowledge of Jesus Christ, and God has been faithful year after year. Prior to this role, Chris
attended Calvary Chapel Bible College in California, where the Lord called him into ministry and
brought him together with his wife Naomi, who now serves as the women’s ministry leader. They
have been married 25 years this November and are blessed with four wonderful children. God
captured Chris’s heart in 1999 during his senior year of high school through the teaching of His Word,
and it has been his passion ever since to equip the saints for the work of the ministry as in Ephesians
4 while helping the Word of God make sense as in Nehemiah 8, standing on Matthew 4:4.
Tony Jacobs
I was Born-Again in 1982 after some time of listening to the ministry of Pastor Chuck’s teachings on
cassette tapes. Ministry began for me through conducting a home Bible Study, every other week for 2
years beginning in 1987. The door then opened up to become a Sunday School teacher at a local
Independent Church, which led to becoming an assistant pastor which then led to becoming pastor of
that church. I joined up later with a denomination for 7 years, but the Lord told me where I belong,
which was in the ministry of Calvary Chapel. Because of our Lord’s grace and mercy, Calvary
Chapel, Vassar, Mi. started in 2001. My wife Bonnie and I have been married for 47 years, have 5
children and 19 grandchildren.
