I am excited to announce that Rev. Ben Eschenfelder has joined the Stones River District as a part-time District Project Manager. Ben will work within the district helping to connect local churches, clergy and laity.

Ben is a native of Tennessee and is married to Tonya. They have three children, Alex, Anna Grace, and Jacob. Tonya and Ben started working with youth and leading Bible studies in 2005. Ben transitioned into pastoral ministry and has served in the local church for the last 8 years. Ben has a passion for building relationships and connecting people. He first discovered this passion while serving at a district youth camp at Beersheba where several churches came together for incredible  fellowship and worship time. Ben is a provisional elder and is excited for this opportunity to work together with you in revitalizing and renewing relationships (the connection) between clergy and between local churches.
