Meet the Ministry Leaders

Bill Mugford

Lead/Teaching Pastor

Rev. Bill Mugford started his ministry as Lead/Teaching Pastor at Community Bible Church on Christmas Eve, 2007. Bill brings a deep love for making Jesus' church in the power of the Holy Spirit a prevailing and irresistible influence at the heart and soul of the community. He encourages partnerships that challenge the status quo and builds relationships with other ministries, government and organizations to address and solve community problems.

Our Lead/Teaching Pastor has served as a Senior and Associate Pastor in multi-denominational settings in the United States and Canada, radio and television speaker/host, adjunct college educator, liaison to government, journal author and substantive editor of the Encyclopedia of Christian Worship, and founder of the Philip Aziz Centre for Hospice and Palliative Care, Toronto, Canada. In occasional roles as church consultant and seminar speaker, Bill has broadened his experience and served the larger church.

Born in Boston, Massachusetts , Bill met Rose - his Italian-born sweetheart, spouse and ministry partner of 34 years - in Toronto, Canada . They have two married children - Joshua and Cristen Mugford, Chapel Hill, NC, and Chip and Kristen Hayner, Nashville, TN.

Bill loves music of all kinds and plays competitive sports; is a railroad steam-engine aficionado and train collector; and hunts and collects fossils as an amateur paleontologist. He and Rose love exploring local history by car. Check out more details in his on-line Resume at www.billmugford.com.

Over and above all, Bill's life has been and is dedicated to presenting Jesus Christ, the Hope of the World.

Dave Annan

Pastor of Childrens Ministries

Dave recently joined the staff at CBC and is originally from the Philadelphia area. After graduating from Bible College he spent the next 26 years serving as a Youth Pastor, Assistant Pastor, and Senior Pastor. Before coming to CBC he served as a Christian Education Director in Winston-Salem for three and a half years. He and his wife Cindy have seven children and one grandson. Out of the seven children only one is a boy! Dave has lots of experience with children on and off the job! His hobbies include NASCAR, deer hunting, and sports. His passion is reaching out to children and their families.

You can contact Dave at the church at 841-4480 ext. 28 or email him at: dave.annan@cbchurch.org

Rob Black

Pastor of Adult Ministries

Rob Black joined the staff in August of 2000. Before coming to CBC, Rob planted an E-Free church in Georgetown, Kentucky and pastored that church for ten years. Rob didn't follow a normal career path from associate pastor to senior pastor. He took the reverse route. Rob sensed the Lord had honed his skills and passions from senior leadership to the equipping of adults. He oversees all adult ministries including Sunday School, Small Groups and Assimilation. He and his wife, Susan, have three sons (as you read this imagine the theme song from "My Three Sons" playing softly in the background) Andy, Thomas and Phillip. The Blacks love High Point but would really rather live in Mayberry, RFD!

Rob's extension at the church is #24 and his email address is: rob.black@cbchurch.org

Alicia Shaw

Director of Children's Ministries

Alicia moved to High Point (with her husband Phil) from Indiana in August 2000 to join the CBC staff. She oversees all the children's ministries from birth through 5th grade. Alicia previously served with Youth for Christ, taught preschool, did prison ministry, was an administrator in a large denominational headquarters and grew up snowmobiling. The Lord used all these experiences to prepare Alicia for this season in her life of ministering to children and equipping the many volunteers in Children's Ministries at CBC. There is nobody, but nobody, on staff who can give out NASCAR stats like Alicia.

Call her at ext. #26 or do the electronic connection at: alicia.shaw@cbchurch.org

Jeff Smith

Pastor of Student Ministries

Jeff and his wife Candice (his much better half) have been on staff since October 2005. They are High Point natives with Jeff growing up at CBC.

They have 2 dogs, Jake their chocolate lab and Sadie there “girl” dog (Jeff has no idea what she is, but it gives Candice another female in the guy dominated house).

Lee Worden

Global Outreach Director

Lee and her family have been long-time members of CBC. They came to the church in its infancy during the mid 80's and have served in many areas of ministry through the years. However global outreach is definitely Lee's passion. She joined the staff in 1996 to oversee CBC's foreign missions program which includes caring for the 45 missionary families we support, administrating our annual short-term trips and special projects and keeping our focus global. Lee and her husband, Richard, have three daughters: Lizzie, Sarah and Rebecca. Keeping in touch with all those missionaries keeps Lee online most of the time, so calls are always a welcomed relief.

Lee is at extension #25 and her ever-so-popular email address is: lee.worden@cbchurch.org
