Pastor Joe and his family accepted the call to pastor MBC in May
of 2002. The Nogalski’s are happy and excited about being part of
this Church during this special time of growth. The Nogalski’s fully
believe that this is the place God has them to finish out their
ministry.

Pastor Joe comes to MBC from Dahlgren, IL. Bro. Joe pastored for
five years in Dahlgren and saw great growth. Before pastoring in
Dahlgren, Bro. Joe pastored Pleasant Valley Baptist in
Grantsburg, IL. Pleasant Valley was the Nogalski’s first pastorate
where they learned much about the ministry.

Pastor Joe was called to the ministry when he was 16 years of
age. Bro. Joe did not grow up in a Christian family but heard the
gospel from the testimony of his brother Bob who is now also
pastoring. Bro. Joe grew up in a housing project in Detroit,
Michigan. Upon completion of high school, Bro. Joe attended
Baptist Bible College in Springfield, MO. Bro. Joe has been in the
ministry in different capacities since graduating in the spring of
1985. While pastoring in Dahlgren, IL Bro. Joe earned his Master
of Divinity from the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in
Louisville, KY.

Pastor Joe’s wife Joyce also graduated from Baptist Bible College
with a degree in children’s ministries. Bro. Joe and Joyce have two
children, Janay 12 , and Joey is 11.
