Our pastor, John H. Weller, grew up in Ft Lauderdale, Florida. The Church of the Nazarene became his church when as a senior in high school he was invited to see a movie at the Hollywood church. The movie’s message reminded him of his need for a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. It was at this time in his life that he again felt the call of God upon his life; the same call he had felt as a young altar boy in the Methodist church.
Pastor John graduated from Trevecca Nazarene University with a B.A. in both Religion and Communications. He received his Masters of Divinity with a Concentration in Christian Education from the Nazarene Theological Seminary in Kansas City, Missouri.
Pastor John has been in full-time pastoral ministry for 28 years. He loves people and helping them take the next step in their spiritual journey. He is excited about the ministry God has brought him to in Hollywood, Florida area. He is looking forward to walking along side the people of the Hollywood Church of the Nazarene as God directs.
He is a Lt. Col. Chaplain in the United States Air Force Reserves where he has served for 26 years. He has been blessed by this extension to his pastoral ministry.
He and his wife, Darlene, have been happily married for 34 years and friends for longer. They were blessed with three children Jacquie, Jalaine and Johnathan. They have two grandsons Brandon and Bradley.
In his free time you will find him totally involved with some kind of technology, reading or working on a home improvement project.
