Church Staff
Steve Kindt, Lead Pastor
Steve came to Wollaston in February of 2021. Having graduated from Eastern Nazarene College, coming to “the church on the campus” is a bit like coming home. Steve and his wife, Missy, who met at ENC, have been married since 1992. They have two children, Megan and Nathan, who both attended ENC. Missy is a public-school French teacher who travels extensively training other world language teachers.
Steve loves talking about local church ministry, fishing and golfing. He enjoys listening to, playing, and singing, music of any style. Spending time with his family is his favorite thing to do.
Steve has served for three different churches in a variety of capacities for 29 years prior to moving to Quincy. “I believe that through Christ, when healthy, the local church is the greatest opportunity for transformation of life, community and the world.” This is Steve’s passion.
