Pastor Jack Weigle
Pastor Weigle grew up in Indianapolis under the ministry of Dr. Wendell Heller. He received Christ during his Junior High School years under the preaching of Dr. Monroe Parker. He received his B.A. in Bible at Bob Jones University in 1969 and married his childhood friend, Cheryl Pryor, on August 24th of the same year. He was ordained to the Gospel Ministry on August 19th, 1973. He pursued graduate studies at Denver Theological Seminary. He became the Pastor of Open Door on the first Sunday in December, 1977.
When, in 2004, Open Door decided to put their church building up for sale, the church moved into Pastor and Mrs. Weigle’s home. While the Pastor and Deacons looked faithfully for God’s leading, it took six years to find their present home in Speedway.
During these years, many have been saved, several have gone on to serve God in various ministries, three have been ordained, including his son, John, and many families have reared godly children to the glory of God.
His life verse is 2 Corinthians 4:5, “For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus’ sake.”
