Wes Pastor is founder and senior minister of Christ Memorial Church (CMC) as well as the president and visionary of NETS Institute for Church Planting (NETS).  Upon graduating from The Ohio State University, Wes earned an MBA from Miami University (OH), then taught accounting at the collegiate level.  In 1985 he began his pastoral studies part-time at Dallas Theological Seminary, ultimately graduating from Westminster Theological Seminary in 1990.  The following year, Wes, his wife Sue, and their young family moved to Vermont with a vision for spreading the gospel by planting gospel-preaching churches.  Christ Memorial Church was born of that vision, and Wes has been senior pastor of CMC since its inception in 1992.  Wes and Sue have three children in college and two at home, and continue to keep busy ministering to the body at CMC and rooting for the Ohio State Buckeyes.
