Jon Walker

Sr Minister

Jon Walker is not a country music fan, but he has many friends who are.  Growing up in a minister’s family, he was always in the middle of congregational life -- which explains why he is not so hot on potluck suppers (again though, surrounded by people who are!).  He did seminary training in Cincinnati (explaining his love of Skyline Chili!) and began his ministry with a small group of believers who met in a "Little House on the Prairie" church building in Victor (over on Andrews Street) in 1982.  He has been married to Linda over 25 years, and they have two children, Karis and Jesse, both of whom bring them huge joy!  Preaching and teaching is what he think he’s been made to do, and he feels ultimately significant in life when able to help people see how much Jesus loves them and how unbelievably good the offer of grace really is.  On the side, he loves to drive fast, he thinks Waimoku Falls is the most amazing landscapery God ever thought up, he is a Mets' fan (just wait until 1986!), and he appreciates getting sent good jokes via email (jonwalker@frontiernet.net, if you have any).



Bob Brown

Pastoral Care Minister

Bob Brown is the husband of Marilyn, the father of Kristin Sumarsono (ask him sometime about the beginning of his daughter’s wedding ceremony!), the grandfather of Kyle, Ryan, Elyse, and Timmy, and he’s still got way too much energy!  Having grown up in Philly, he’s an Easterner by birth, but having spent a large portion of his adult life in California, he likes mountains and beaches, and roads that don’t have 8 lanes each way!  Bob was managing projects for ARCO for a long time, but his commitment to Jesus eventually led him to managing Kingdom projects and helping people who were hurting, and he decided to study for the ministry at Hope College.  He worked with a couple of congregations on the West Coast before moving to Victor to be close to his grandchildren, and that’s when our church found him - retired, passionate, and ready to go – so we asked Bob to come on staff and lead our church’s efforts to provide good care.  He agreed, and now we are!  (If you’d like to be part of the team of people that Bob leads providing that care, please contact him at rcblyn@aol.com.)



Greg Davis

Worship Minister

Funny, that picture kinda looks like Greg!  Often, the first questions people have after visiting our worship assemblies for the first time is "What do you feed the guy on keyboards?"  Mr. Davis is a married man (his wife Kerry is a trained massage therapist), the father of two boys (Aidan is fascinated by moving music and Eli is fascinated by anything that moves!), and an excellent hardwood floor guy (Biblically speaking, if you want tents, call Paul -- but before you do that, have Greg put down your floors!).  He's into martial arts, he has some real opinions about the US Constitution, and he has plays trumpet well enough to earn him gigs around the world, but each Sunday morning, Greg sits at the keyboard on our stage and helps us honor Jesus. A lot!  And with zest.  Zestily, in fact, with a capital "Z"!  It really can't be described with words -- you just have to experience what he makes happen -- and we hope you will -- this Sunday, or any one soon!

Jane Montgomery

Office Manager

Jane Montgomery has served for the past ten years as our Office Administrator.  She has worked in the past as a wedding coordinator for Sonnenberg Gardens, and has been a paralegal for several local attorneys. She is wildly crafty (she loves all things having to do with crafts), she owns more Christmas decorations than FOA Schwartz, and she was made by God to organize.  If you call our office (585-924-5550), the first voice you’ll hear is hers, and she will (almost always) be able to help you with whatever you need – whether that’s a phone number, a building reservation, a Scripture verse, or getting an announcement in next week’s bulletin! She’s great! 

Jason Polowchak

Director of Youth and Student Ministries

After a severe pinky injury forced him to retire from a lucrative career as a professional "Duck, Duck Goose" player, Jason decided to give Youth Ministry a try.  He grew up in East Rochester, NY and started hanging out with Willowbrook (back when it was CCV) when he was 8 years old.  At one point, he was the President, Vice-President, Secretary, and sole member of the Youth Group.  He studied Youth Ministry at Johnson Bible College, swam in the pond, then moved back to NY, where his life dramatically changed one fateful Sunday morning when he walked into the high school class at Willowbrook U and saw Michelle -- the most beautiful woman he had ever seen -- and he immediately decided that she would marry him.  Two years later he finally convinced her that this was a good idea and they have been married for 14 years.  They have 2 very high energy boys: Jake, a football playing, MMA loving, lacrosse player; and Jonathan. a football playing, Karate Yellow Belt who loves making really weird movies on his Dad’s cell phone.  Jason served as a Youth and Worship Minister in Charlottesville, VA for 2 years before moving into retail management in NY for several years.  He joined the Willowbrook staff as the Director of Youth and Student Ministries in 2009.  He loves Salvatore’s pizza, pineapple upside down cake, the Dallas Cowboys, New Jersey Devils, Boston Red Sox (a love he shares with his kids), Dodgeball, Star Wars, and singing Neil Diamond songs really, really loud.  He loves hanging out with kids and helping them see how Jesus can change their lives.
