Rev. David Ukropina and Rev. Marta Ukropina, Co-Pastors

David and Marta met at Austin Presbyterian Seminary in Austin, Texas, and were married during their second year there. Between the two of them, they have spent significant amounts of time living in California, Colorado, Texas, Tennessee, Ohio and Pennsylvania. They have previously served churches in Hurst, Texas, and Flower Mound, Texas, both in the Dallas-Ft Worth area. While in Texas, they welcomed their two children, Eric (born in 2008) and Audrey (born in 2012). David and Marta enjoy travelling, reading, movies, and just about anything with their kids. Some favorite authors and/or preachers include Fred Craddock, Barbara Brown Taylor, Frederick Buechner, C.S. Lewis, Philip Yancey, Annie Dillard, Lillian Daniel and Craig Barnes. They have served churches both separately and together, and found together is much better! Marta and David share a passion for worship, education and ministry with all ages.
