Zach Spann, Board Member
Zach came to Troy from Pell City, AL in 2008 as an undergraduate student. After earning his bachelors, he considered where to live and work, never imagining that Troy would be a long-term place of residence. After making it as far as California, Zach felt compelled to return to Troy to be a part of a volunteer college ministry through First Baptist Church. It is here that Zach met his wife, Fran, but also developed a love for the community of Troy that he now calls home. Zach began full-time ministry in 2013 and currently serves as the Lead Pastor at Troy Church as well as an adjunct professor at Troy in the Leadership Development Program. Zach and Fran have three boys, and love spending time supporting the wonderful TCS family that is educating their children, coaching rec sports, and getting outdoors as much as possible.
