Meet the Pastor

Senior Pastor
Pastor Jeff & Rose Mantz

I was born and reared on a farm in central North Dakota. I accepted Christ as Savior at the age of six, baptized in the Holy Spirit at age 10, and called into full-time ministry at age 15. I graduated from McClusky High School in 1970 and received my ministerial license after graduating from Trinity Bible College. Rose and I were married while in Bible College and have served together in ministry for over 37 years. We have four beautiful daughters and nine amazing grandchildren.

We have pastored over 28 years in Mandan ND, Platte SD, and here in Yankton. We have ministered as evangelists in music and preaching as well as having worked in specialized ministries such as Love Lines in Minneapolis MN, the Alpha Center in Sioux Falls SD, and as chaplain of the State Training School in Plankinton SD for five years.

We love it here in Yankton, and are excited about the awesome things God is doing here!
