OUR STAFF
Pastor Tom Gibson
PASTOR
I am grateful to be the pastor here at NLBC. My wife, Emily, and I got married just a couple years out of High School and God has since blessed us with 7 children, four biological and three adopted. Though we had both accepted Christ before marriage, it wasn’t until a year later that I got serious about my relationship with God and accepted God’s call on my life to be a preacher of the Gospel. We are both so blessed to have a wonderful family, serve in a wonderful church, and live for a wonderful God.

I was born and raised here locally in the Cedar Rapids, Iowa area. I graduated High School in 2018 and had the privilege of attending Bible College for a few years. My wife Ally and I have had the great blessing of being married since March of 2021. I greatly desire to impact the next generation and see them follow and serve the Lord with thier lives.
Levi Gibson
MUSIC DIRECTOR
I’ve been part of North Liberty Baptist Church since I was very young. My love for both music and the Lord has always been close to my heart, so when I had the opportunity to become music director in 2021, I didn’t miss a beat!
North Liberty Baptist has always felt like a second home for my family and me—a place where friends become family and where serving is a joy. It’s truly a blessing to be part of such a loving and faithful community.
Austyn Jackson
NURSERY DIRECTOR
Caring for children has always been a big part of my life. Growing up with younger siblings and babysitting on numerous occasions has given me plenty of hands-on experience.
Currently, I work at a preschool/daycare and serve as the nursery director at North Liberty Baptist Church. Our nursery is open Sunday mornings and Wednesday nights for children up to age three. My goal is to ensure that every child feels safe, loved, and well-cared for during their time with us.
Brenda Jones
SECRETARY TO THE PASTOR
I have been married to my wonderful husband, John, since 1981. After retiring, John and I moved to North Liberty IA in 2012. We became members of NLBC in 2021 and I have been blessed to be performing various secretarial functions since fall of 2022.
