Shiloh’s Staff

I’ve been privileged to serve the Lord as Senior Pastor of Shiloh since 1997. Prior to coming to Bloomsburg, I taught at a Bible college in our nation’s capital for 12 years. The focus of my ministry is the Scriptures, and my passion is to clearly communicate the truths of the Word of God and to apply its eternal principles to the needs of twenty-first century believers. 

I became a widower in 2015 but have since remarried.  My wife, Gina, has two children: Max and Paige, and I have two children: Joel and Anna.

Hi! I’m Dave Hummel—Laura’s husband, Colson and Abby’s dad, and the Associate Pastor at Shiloh. As a recent addition to the Shiloh team, I’m focused on getting to know the people and ministries that help us fulfill our mission. I’m a graduate of Penn State University and Dallas Theological Seminary.

One of my favorite parts of being a pastor is helping people understand the Bible in a personal and practical way. In my free time, I enjoy mowing the lawn (it’s therapeutic!), playing games, watching football, hunting, and smoking meat—usually pork butt, chicken, turkey, or ribs.

My journey at Shiloh began as a young boy when I came to know the Lord as my personal Savior through the ministry of Larry and Ruthann Hummel. Although I drifted during my teen years, I renewed my walk with Christ in my early twenties. My wife, Deb, and I then spent 27 years on the mission field in South America and the Philippines, raising our four children while serving the Lord.

When we returned in 2018, I stepped into the role of Executive Pastor and later transitioned to Pastor of Congregational Care. In this ministry, I have the privilege of walking with our congregation through life’s challenges and encouraging a deeper relationship with Christ. It is a blessing to serve and a constant reminder of the Lord’s faithfulness throughout my life.
