Leadership

Pastor Joe Ferraro was born and raised right here in Broward County Florida. After graduating from Taravella High School in 1999 he got started working in youth ministry right away at the local legendary Skateboard Park, Ramp 48. Joe quickly discovered his love for ministry while teaching the Bible at the Skate Park and mentoring the youth.  After ten amazing years of youth ministry the leadership at Calvary Chapel Fort Lauderdale ordained him to be their next campus pastor. From 2009 - 2022 Joe served at Calvary Chapel West Boca as their Campus Pastor. Pastor Joe has been married to his wonderful wife Madie for eighteen years and they have three teenage sons, Gianni, Julian and Joseph. Pastor Joe holds two degrees, one from Calvary Chapel Bible College with an emphasis on Pastoral ministry and counseling and another from Trinity International University with an emphasis on Christian ministry. He is currently working on his Masters of Arts in Biblical and Theological Studies at Knox Theological Seminary. If Joe is not spending time with his family or serving the church he is probably out in nature somewhere riding his bike, surfing a wave, or just enjoying time in the great outdoors.

Pastor Ryan has been faithfully serving in the ministry for nearly 20 years. He has a heart for men’s discipleship and outreach, and serves as our service and hospitality overseer. Ryan and Laura have been married for 16 years and have two beautiful teenaged children,  Matthew and Jordan.

Pastor Jeremiah was born and raised in Margate, Florida. He has a heart for discipleship and a love for all people. Jeremiah holds a Master of Divinity from Liberty University and enjoys studying the humanities. Jeremiah has been married to his wife Ana for seven years and the two of them enjoy playing board games, the outdoors, and athletics.

Steve was raised in South Florida and grew up in a Christian home. Having come to  Christ at a young age, he has served in the Church in various capacities ranging from VBS youth volunteer to Small Group leader.  After high school, he attended Liberty University.  This is when he met his future wife while back on winter break in between semesters. Fast forward to today - he currently enjoys helping others find new employment (his day job/ministry) and serves his family as the husband to his beautiful wife of 16 years Diandra and father to their 4 kids. If he’s not serving the church body at Brookstone, you may find him on his paddle-board out on the water, training at the gym, or spending quality time with his family.

Jacob Ramos has a passion for leading worship. He is a graduate of Oceans Edge School of Ministry and loves to lift the congregation's heart Sunday mornings with songs filled with praise and worship.

Madie Ferraro is our Pastor's wife and leads our Brookstone Women's Ministry.  She loves opening her heart and home to the ladies. She has a gift to teach God's word and enjoys spending time in fellowship with friends and family.  Madie is very involved in ministry and welcomes the opportunity to mentor other women.

Linda Helm and her husband Tom are amazing people who love the Lord. Linda serves as a children's ministry volunteer. Linda is equipped with both the passion and gifting to help our team of dedicated children's ministry volunteers care for your kids and build them up in the Lord.
