Lead Pastor

Bryan Hay

Hey there! I’m Bryan and I get to have the best job in the world by helping folks heal, know truth, find hope, and discover their purpose that God has for them! It is a blast doing this with an awesome staff and elders you will see below. I have been serving in a church one way or another for the past 13 years, and you will see I value living real and authentic lives for the real and authentic Jesus. I love Jesus and I cannot imagine going through life without Him. Been there, done that… not awesome. What is awesome, is the grace of Jesus, and I can’t help but share about it. Speaking of awesome, I am not awesome at golf, basketball, or sports in general… but I love trying. My wife is awesome… and I love her. My kids are sometimes awesome… but I love them. I hope you will come and see why this church is awesome, and why we love you before ever meeting you.

Executive pastor

Aaron Lee

Hey! My name is Aaron Lee and I’m the Executive Pastor here at FCC. My heart yearns to see the people of God used to their greatest potential for the gospel to be shared and received. It thrills me that I get to help be a part of that here at Fork. I’m married to the most gracious person I know, Jerrica, and we have three wild boys together; their names are Jedidiah, Abram, and Josiah. Yes, we took those Biblical names serious! I love photography, music, and any chance to go see a good movie.

spiritual care & Connections Pastor

Virgil Brazle

This is me, Virgil. I’m the Spiritual Care and Connections Pastor here at Fork. I joined the staff in 2016 after doing a lot of life and ministry in the Midwest. I am passionate about getting people connected to Jesus and to His church. One of my personal goals in life is to make a difference in the life of every person I encounter with the hope that in turn, they will do the same. One of my ministry goals is that no one would ever walk away from a gathering at FCC without experiencing the love of Jesus.  When not on the job, I love the outdoors and working with tools. Barb, my amazing wife of 40 years loves cooking and hospitality. We both treasure our time spent with people, especially our kids and 5 grandkids.

Student Pastor

Ben Cantler

I’m Ben, and I’m the Student Pastor here at Fork Christian Church! I am a loving husband to my beautiful wife Laura, and Superdad to my adorable daughter Macie. I’m a huge fan of movies, which anyone could guess after a quick conversation with me as I tend to go into random descriptive rants about films, blurting out my favorite quotes or throwing out anecdotes as if I were in the movie myself. I have over a decade of experience in youth ministry, and it is my calling and my passion. I love working with students, teaching them about the life-changing message that Jesus offers them, walking with them through these formative years in their lives, and maintaining those friendships long after they’ve left. At any given point in time, I’m saving up money to go to Disney World.

Worship Pastor

Nick Smith

Hey, I’m Nick and I joined the staff at Fork Christian Church at the end of 2018. I am passionate about helping people connect with Jesus, and I love how music and creativity can be a powerful way to connect with Him and experience His creativity that’s evidenced in our lives and stories. My wife Dana and I have been best friends for nearly two decades and she rocks being the best Mom to our two kids Micah and Kendall! We love spending time together enjoying the little things, eating food (that preferably we don’t have to cook ourselves), drinking coffee brewed from home (because we’re that picky) and all things Jeep (even our kids will tell you what color they’ll own one day).

CHILDREN’S PASTOR

Ashley Wangen

Hey all! My name is Ashley, and I’m the Children’s Pastor here at Fork. Originally from Phoenix, Arizona, I have a huge heart for Children’s Ministry. I believe this ministry, though often overlooked, plays a vital role in shaping the next generation. One of the most rewarding aspects is witnessing not just the impact on the children but also on the volunteers and parents. It’s incredible to see parents choosing to come to church because their 4th grader is shining the light of Jesus so brightly or volunteers growing deeper in their faith after a 1st grader asks a tough question about God. When I’m not enjoying the best job in the world, you’ll find me in the kitchen cooking, baking goodies (I’m known for my banana bread!), reading, or dancing. I hope you’ll come and experience the joy of being here at Fork and the love we have for the next generation. Hope to see you soon.

Hi, I’m Mary Iwancio and I am the Facilities Associate working alongside Harold Wells. My husband Phil and I live in Monkton and have been members of Fork Christian Church for 3 years. I have two grown children and a wonderful grandson. I worked for Baltimore County before starting my own
