Feb 7, 2026    Pastor Dexter Thomas

This week we have a special guest speaker in our pulpit. Pastor Dexter Thomas is the new president of Christian Record Services (CRS) in Lincoln, Nebraska, bringing years of pastoral leadership and the lived perspective of someone who is blind to the organization he now leads. 


Formerly the senior pastor of Fairfield Community Church in California, Thomas is known for launching innovative ministries and cultivating diverse, growing communities. He is also the founder of PhoneFaith, a national outreach connecting people who are blind or have low vision—now a part of CRS—reflecting his deep conviction that everyone deserves to feel seen, heard, and valued. His background includes serving as disability coordinator for the Florida Conference, teaching at Starr King School of Ministry, leading evangelism efforts around the world, and faithfully serving on the CRS Board of Directors since 2017, where he has been a consistent contributor to the organization’s publications.


We look forward to him sharing his passion for the blind and for Jesus this weekend.
