Reverend Chris Deacon began serving the United Parish of Bowie in October, 2014. Previously, Chris served as Pastor to two congregations in Farmington and Yates City, Illinois, where he also volunteered as a Firefighter and EMT.

Chris appreciates spending time with his wife (Heather) and daughter (Hannah), and enjoys cooking, reading, running, and watching television/movies. Additionally, he is a big Tennessee Titans fan, which proves Chris is an optimist who believes nobody is beyond redemption and grace!
