Andy Albright is the Lead Pastor at Twin Falls Church of the Nazarene. He was born in Cincinnati, Ohio and lived there until 1993 when his family relocated to Denver, Colorado. Andy accepted Jesus at a young age, and felt the Lord stirring in his heart during his teen years regarding a call into ministry. He finally accepted the call after completing his first year of teaching Junior High English in the summer of 2004. Andy has served in ministry the past 16 years in Westminster, Colorado, La Junta, Colorado, Newport, OR, and now in Twin Falls, Idaho. Pastor Andy holds a Bachelor’s degree in secondary education from Metropolitan State College of Denver and a Master’s Degree in Pastoral Ministry from Northwest Nazarene University.

Andy married his best friend Sarah in 2004 and they have two sons David and Aaron. As a family they enjoy going out to eat, exercising together, watching sports together, and spending time with friends.

James Hardy is the Pastor of Discipleship & Executive Administration at Twin Falls Church of the Nazarene.  He grew up on a farm outside of Elgin, OR. After high school, he attended Northwest Nazarene University and graduated in 2013 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Christian Ministry. Not long after James graduated from NNU, he married his beautiful wife, Rachel, and moved to Spokane, WA to take on his first full-time ministry assignment. In 2017, God directed James and Rachel to move to Twin Falls to be a part of our pastoral team.

When James has free time, he enjoys watching or playing basketball, playing board games with friends, or watching something on Netflix with Rachel.
