Dan Desrosiers is the Executive Pastor at Connection Church in Pottstown, Pennsylvania—a congregation he helped plant in 2005 and has served in ever since. Before that, he spent five years as a missionary in Europe, and he continues to stay involved in global ministry efforts. Dan's background blends church leadership, media, and the arts: he began his career as a college professor in the Digital Media program at the University of Valley Forge, where he still teaches part-time after 20 years.
He's also a coffee roaster, contract producer, and communications consultant, with experience in live broadcast, concert production, and event design. As a multi-instrumentalist and worship leader, music continues to be a central part of both his personal and ministry life.
Dan holds a Master of Arts from Regent University and a bachelor's degree in Church Music from the University of Valley Forge. He and his wife Alicia were married in 2008 and have three daughters—Paisley, Piper, and Ana. He's a big fan of Disney and all things creative.
