Andrew Zimmerman (Pastoral Intern, and director of youth and family ministry) was born in Philadelphia in 1985, where he remained until moving to Ambler in 2018. In 2012, he married his remarkably patient wife, Lindsey, after dating for 7 years (a number with solid biblical precedent). They have been happily wed ever since. Upon graduating from Temple University with a Bachelor’s in Art Education, Andrew was hired by the School District of Philadelphia where he is currently employed as a full-time art teacher. He later obtained a Master’s Degree in Education from Cabrini college.
Ever since high-school, Andrew has served in ministry including, but not limited to, leading Bible studies, summer camps, children’s church and youth group. More recently, he has been blessed with the opportunity to preach regularly at Northeast Community Church and Mayfair Presbyterian in Philadelphia. Sensing an internal call to ministry that has been confirmed externally on numerous occasions, Andrew has enrolled in Reformed Theological Seminary’s Master of Divinity program.
As a natural-born skeptic who has experienced God’s mercy firsthand, Andrew wants to share the good news that has saved his life with others. In addition to discussing theology, philosophy and apologetics, Andrew’s interests include biking, illustration, reading, and writing. His favorite author is C.S. Lewis. Andrew also enjoys watching cartoons and reading comic books, probably for dignified academic purposes. Currently, Andrew is happy to worship and serve at Old Goshenhoppen.
