SENIOR PASTOR
Rev. Michael (Mike) Alix
Mike has served as senior pastor since 2010. Prior to that, he served as Blessed Hope’s youth pastor.
He has a B.S. in Youth Ministry from Nyack College and a Master of Divinity from Gordon-Conwell Seminary, through the help of Berkshire Christian College. He also attended The Berkshire Institute for Christian Studies.
Pastor Mike loves Jesus and His Church. He desires to see everyone — families and singles, young and old, poor and rich, all races and ethnicity — to live lives transformed by the Gospel and to think with biblically transformed minds (Romans 12:2).
Mike and his wife Erica have three sons: Joseph, Gideon, and Asher.
He loves to hang out, talk and has a dry sense of humor.
