Brian Neilson

Senior Pastor

Hello, my name is Pastor Brian.

I love the word of God and I love to teach. I am humbled and honored that He has called me to be a Pastor. I was called by God to be a Pastor in September of 2018 and was licensed by our church in Idaho in October 2018. I have since been ordained into the ministry by our church in Indiana. And now I am blessed to lead this wonderful church here in Kiowa, KS. 

I am blessed to be married to my best friend and the most amazing woman I have ever met. I have 5 incredible children who I love with all my heart and 7 grandchildren.

I am an open book; if there is anything you would like to know I am happy to share. I am looking to serve the LORD wherever and however, he asks me to.  

God has been preparing me my entire life to answer his call to be a Pastor. I know without a doubt that the Holy Spirit called me to lead a local church and I am honored and humbled that He has called me to pastor KSBC.
