ERIC'S BIO

Scott is the lead pastor at Velocity Church. He is also the founder and director of Love Cleveland, a non-profit organization that helps meet the needs of at-risk children in Cleveland, Ohio. He is author of three books, My New Church, Children Matter, and The Church Next Door.

Before starting Velocity, Scott was a youth minister for 13 years. He spent 7 years at a super cool church in Tollesboro, Kentucky. (Yep, Tollesboro, that's right next to Ribolt and Rectorville.) He spent another 6 years at High Point Christian Church in Clinton, Ohio.

Scott has been married for 16 years to his wife Vanessa and they have two amazing kids. They love spending time playing kickball with all of the neighborhood kids and watching movies. In his free time, Scott enjoys training for triathlons, riding mountain bikes, and spending time with his family.

Staci grew up in Champion, Ohio, a small town outside of the Warren/Youngstown area. She has her Bachelor of Arts from Kent State and a Master’s degree at Baldwin Wallace. She has a love for baking and reading, and you will almost always find her holding a good cup of coffee. Staci and her husband Matt married in 2017 and have a son.

Before joining the staff, Staci volunteered in Kidz City and on the service event planning team. When asked what her favorite Velocity event is, she'll tell you Summerfest. "Not everyone gets to go on a summer vacation. But knowing I am able to help provide one day where kids and families can come together and make some awesome memories is really rewarding. I joined the staff because I wanted to make more of an impact, not just at Summerfest."
