About Town Center Church

Our church launched in March 2024 in Boca Raton, Florida. We desire to be a community that follows Jesus, studies the scriptures, that's filled with the Spirit, and loves our neighbors through truth, kindness and grace.

Our Pastor

Pastor Jerry Sander’s journey of faith began at Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa, where he first gave his life to the Lord. He continued to grow spiritually at Calvary Chapel Laguna Beach, and it was there that God opened the door for him to leave a career in construction and step into full-time ministry.

He was ordained at Calvary Chapel Fort Lauderdale and has been faithfully serving and pastoring in South Florida for over 23 years—18 of those as the lead pastor of Calvary Chapel Boca Raton.

Jerry and his wife, Wendy, have been married for 28 years and are proud parents of two amazing daughters, Jisella and Jianna.

His heart is to teach the Word, love people well, and see lives transformed by the grace of God.
