The senior pastor of Faith Community Church is passionate about introducing people to the salvation that is found in a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Pastor Dino celebrated his 30th year of pastoral service at FCC in October of 2023.
Dino was born and raised in Racine. He came to Christ at 16, God prepared him for ministry through many life and educational experiences. Dino is a graduate of both Georgia State University and North Central University with a major in pastoral studies and a minor in evangelism.
After answering God's call into the ministry in 1987, Dino has served in many roles such as church planting, missions, youth, and itinerant preaching. Since 1993 Dino has been faithfully helping to lead the charge of “Going and Making Disciples of Jesus Christ” at FCC.
Dino has been married to Cindy for more than 35 years. Not only the mother of their 4 adult children, she has a career as a medical laboratory technician and serves in areas of church ministry as well. They both take great interest in pursuing strong relationships with their family.
Besides ministry and the study of God’s word Dino is a jack of all trades - an engineer at heart. Some of his hobbies include growing sweet corn, felling trees, working the land, building things, grilling, watching sports, and staying active.
One of Dino's most inspiring verses is Psalm 147:10-11 “God’s pleasure is not in the strength of the horse, nor his delight in the legs of a man; the Lord delights and those who fear him, who put their hope in his unfailing love.” Dino would love for you to join us as we pursue our relationships with Christ and live out his word together.
