Meet Our Pastor
Michael Demastus – Executive Pastor
What I Do: I am the Minister of the Word at The Fort. My primary duties are teaching the scriptures and casting a vision for God’s family at The Fort.
Interesting Fact About Me: I have felt a call to preach since I was in ninth grade. The Fort is only my second church to serve as a preacher, and, God willing, will be my last.
I Choose To Worship At The Fort Because: I believe in the vision of this church, and I trust the leadership of this church. Most of all, though, I love the people of The Fort–their passion, their generosity, and their commitment to the mission of God.
A Few of My Favorite Things: My family, especially my grandson Ian, computers and reptiles!
Our Mission
At the Fort Des Moines Church of Christ, our mission is for each member of our church family to become fully devoted followers of Christ. How do we do that? It’s simple.
Our Vision
We don’t want Sunday morning to be the sum total of your walk with Christ. We expect and desire that you experience the joy of serving Christ (which is one of your God-given purposes) in a ministry here at the Fort.
