Geoffrey Maurer

Pastor of Vision and Equipping

When Geoffrey came to the University of Virginia he got more than he expected: an incredible wife Kelly, the sweet and renewing experience of discipleship, and a call to vocational ministry. Before answering the call to Christ Community in 2011, Geoffrey served two years in campus ministry, studied three years at seminary (Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary), led for six years as dean, teacher, coach and chaplain at two private Christian schools.  While with CCC, he has helped to found e4Partnership and received his Doctor of Ministry from Fuller Theological Seminary.

Geoff and Kelly love Charlottesville and are delighted and honored to be raising their three children in the city. They love the Church, including this church, and long for Jesus’ name to be exalted above all.

Tom White

Pastor of Mission and Community

Tom has been a Charlottesville resident his entire life, and he is a long-time member of Christ Community.  He loves this town and is deeply committed to seeing the Kingdom flourish here.  He has had an abiding love for children and youth, one that God kept kindled through his time in education, sales, real estate, and coaching.  Now God is using Tom’s diverse background and work experience in ways that help him love our community well in his current role.  Tom is married to Amy, his high school sweetheart, and they have three children and two grandchild.  He relaxes with humor, cooking, sports, and people (and people, and people).
