Steve McCloskey has been serving as the pastor of Taftsville Chapel since July 2017. Steve seeks to understand and participate in the kingdom of God that Jesus proclaimed and has been a committed disciple of this way of life for over two decades. He is grateful to continue walking this path as part of the eclectic community of Jesus followers at Taftsville Chapel.

Steve earned his Master of Divinity at Princeton Theological Seminary and a Master of Public Administration as well as degrees in Philosophy and Strategic Communication from the Ohio State University. He loves and lives with Jacob and Silas, his two sons, in Hartland. In their free time, the McCloskeys enjoy hiking, biking, playing Nintendo, and exploring the scenery of the Green Mountain State together.


In addition to the pastor, the Leadership structure at Taftsville is comprised of the Church Council, the Trustees, the Leadership Team, the Worship Team, and the Congregational Care Team.
