Mandy Nellans
Lead Pastor
I am Lead Pastor at the Akron Church of God. I am passionate about Jesus, and I love people, a hot cup of coffee, dinner around the table with my family and partnering with God for the Kingdom, here and now. I love horses and enjoy spending time with my horse Alli!
My husband Marc and I have been married for almost 10 years (and fun fact, my husband knew I was going to be a pastor before I did) 😊 We share five incredible children ranging in age from a freshman in college to a first grader.

Diane Wildermuth
Wee Care Director
What a privilege it is for me to be the Director of Wee Care Children’s Ministries! Wee Care provides quality childcare for children ages infant through fifth grade. We also have a wonderful preschool . We get to plant seeds of faith with little ones and share the love of Jesus every day with families in our community as we witness growth through their years with us. Casual family gatherings are important to me as I continue to be a supportive farm wife for 52 years, mother of three married sons with lovely daughters-in-law, and grandmother to seven grandsons and a granddaughter.
