		Rev. Mark S. Peake - Pastor Mark is a native of Burlington, NC but grew up not too far from here in Reading, PA. After attending Elizabthtown College, Mark headed to Boston's historic North Shore for seminary at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary where he met Kimberely who is a native of Santa Cruz, CA. After time spent in California and as an associate pastor in Grosse Ile, Mi, Mark and Kimberley heard the call of the waves here along the Jersey Shore and moved to New Jersey to begin ministry at Pleasantville in May 2005. Mark describes himself as progressively evangelical and seeks to honor God's call in a commitment to the Biblical principles of personal integrity and social justice. So, come on out and meet The Peakes!
