Nick DigNan

Pastor

Pastor Dignan received the Lord as his personal Saviour during the summer of his senior year in high school. It was during that senior year when he wrestled with God about turning down football scholarships and going to Bible college to study for the ministry. He eventually yielded to God and turned down those scholarships and went to Bible college! He then met the love of his life and married Ashley who has been a great blessing to him and the ministry. They have been blessed with four wonderful children.

Before coming to Val Verde Baptist Church he was the Associate Pastor of Bible Baptist, of Jefferson City, MO for 15 years. He also has a heart for the Deaf since he is a C.O.D.A. (Child of Deaf Adults). He has preached to and interpreted for the Deaf for many years!

Jeremiah Young

Youth Pastor

Youth Pastor Jeremiah Young had the wonderful privilege of being raised in a Christian home by his parents John and Ruth Young. Although he was raised in church all of his life, it was not until he was 18 years old that he accepted Jesus Christ as his personal Savior. Not long after he gave his life to Christ, God called him to go to Bible college in northern Michigan. This was the place where God called him to preach, and it is also where he met and married the love of his life, Emma. God has truly blessed the Young family since they moved to southeast Texas in July of 2017. Jeremiah and Emma have 4 wonderful children Joseph, Eliana, Jackson, and Olivia. He has served as a youth pastor for more than a decade, and he has a great love, burden, and desire to reach and teach the next generation.
