Dan Franz
Pastor
Dan has served as the Urban Ministry Pastor at Vineyard Columbus since December 1999. Prior to that, Dan served as a registered nurse at Children's Hospital in Washington, D.C. for several years in the field of pediatric oncology. The Urban Ministry at Vineyard Columbus includes various opportunities to serve with the homeless community, a free food pantry, prison ministry, nursing homes and hospice ministry. Dan has focused a great deal of effort personally in serving with the homeless ministry and establishing our free food pantry, which is now over 10 years old, and the free medical clinic, now under the leadership of Jason Pierce. Dan also began Vineyard Columbus' relationship with the indigenous Vineyard movement in Zambia, Africa, which has resulted in long-term ministry partnerships serving AIDS, orphans and others in need. Dan is grateful to have been married to his wife Carol since 1976, and to have four children and several grandchildren.
