Josh Nolt- Senior Pastor
pastorjosh@lancbic.org
I came to LBIC in September of 2011. Ruby, my wife, and I were married in 2000. We have three amazing kids and a very lovable Goldendoodle named Ella. I graduated from Lee University in 2000, and from Biblical Seminary in 2006. Ruby graduated as well in 2000 and has been working in the social work field – her ‘area of ministry.’
Church has always been a part of my life, however for a long time it was more of a religious experience. Around age 18 I experienced God in a new way – in a way that was more than dogma, morals, or routine. I found God wanted to be a part of every area of my life. I discovered Jesus came to bring a renewal and redemption to everyone. I experienced it, and I wanted to help others do the same.
We’re all a bit messed up, myself included! But God loves us just the same. My heart in life and ministry is to help others discover a life giving, restored relationship with God through Jesus that shapes every part of who they are and what they do. It’s a journey for all of us, but one worth taking!
Shandi E. Santos – Director of Youth and Young Adults
I came to the church in May of 2008 directly from from Lancaster Bible College with a degree in Christian Education and Discipleship and Bible. I am currently taking grad classes at Lancaster Bible College in the field of counseling. I was raised in Shippensburg, PA on a goat farm and now live in Lancaster city. I have traveled to Turkey, Nicaragua, and Dominican Republic on missions trips. I have also traveled to South Africa on vacation.
Nicole Siegel- Director of Music Ministry

As a member of the Evangelical Congregational denomination all my life, God led me to LBIC. After feeling called to once again become active in music ministry, I was made aware of the opening here at LBIC through the newspaper. The rest as they say is history. I joined the family at LBIC in September of 2009 just in time for the Centennial Celebration. I appreciate the warmth and love for Christ that the congregation here at LBIC displays. A 2009 Elizabethtown College graduate with a degree in Corporate Communications focusing on Marketing, I am employed full-time at Four Seasons Produce, Inc. working in the Human Resources department. I am overjoyed and humbled to have the opportunity to serve God and the LBIC congregation through music; church music has always been my passion. My husband, Scott, and I live in Lancaster and enjoy spending time participating and directing various music groups and events throughout the community as well as rooting for the Hershey Bears!
Bill Ziegler- Church Administrator
I have been worshiping at LBIC since 1973. LBIC was my wife’s childhood church. We love it here because the people are our church family. I currently serve as church administrator. Prior to being employed by LBIC, I worked for the Penn Manor School district as a science teacher and middle school principal. Patty and I met at Messiah College and have been married for “many ” years and live in Conestoga, PA. Working with the LBIC family has been very rewarding. This church is a caring body of believers who worship God and enjoy doing it! We are all seeking his plan for our lives. Come join us in our journey.
Carol Crawford- Church Secretary
I have been worshiping at LBIC for over 50 years and have served as secretary for over 30 years and have also enjoyed serving my church family in many diverse areas. I am the mother of two daughters and three grandchildren.
