The Confidence We Have is the Confidence We Keep
Believers who invest their hearts, time, families, and finances in a local church deserve confidence in its leadership. At Union Grove, that confidence is safeguarded through clear guidance, accountable governance, and apostolic covering.
1) We Are Guided by Pastors
The Senior Pastor provides spiritual direction and leads the pastoral team. Together with Campus Pastors, he oversees day-to-day ministry and the church’s spiritual life.
- Senior Pastor: Bishop Ryan Napalo
- Bishops: Ryan Napalo, Billy West, & Wayne Thorn
- Licensed Ministers: Barry West, Hal Johnson
2) We Are Protected by a Corporate Board
Our Board of Directors—trusted members of the congregation—steward finances, facilities, and provide counsel on major commitments. They function as non-staff elders to ensure transparency and accountability.
- Bishop Ryan Napalo (Chair)
- Mike Mitchell
- Carlton Green
- Paul Green
- Darrel Grimes
- Dewayne Winter
- John Young Sr.
- John Young Jr.
- Robbie Harris

3) We Are Strengthened by Bishops & Presbyters
Our church is covered by nationally respected leaders who provide spiritual protection and may assist with accountability matters upon request. These leaders serve as apostolic elders beyond the local level.
- LA/MS Regional Bishop: Bishop Clint Knowles
- North American Presbyter: Bishop Brian Sutton
- Presiding Bishop: Bishop Tim Coalter
Through pastoral guidance, accountable governance, and apostolic covering, we strive to ensure that the confidence you place in this church is confidence you can keep.
