Our Servant Team

Tom Eubank – Senior Elder/Pastor/Teacher

Tom was born again in 1983 and has been heavily involved in church ever since. After serving as an Elder at a traditional church for years he and his wife Cornelia knew something was a little off. Through an unfortunate near fatal car crash, that Tom now calls the best thing that ever happened to them, their eyes were opened to the truth of the Scriptures as they were originally given by Yehovah God Himself, the Prophets and the Apostles.

“As the scales came off my eyes the word of God started making so much sense. The Old and New Testaments are in perfect harmony and the apparent contradictions are no longer to be found”, according to Tom. “We strive to dig deep into the original Hebrew and Greek and combine that with the study of the culture at the time to get the full meaning of the scriptures as they were intended”. Tom works in his own business so the Ministry donations can be primarily used as outlined in both Testaments of the Bible (provide for the Priests, feed the poor, take care of the widows and orphans). The Ministry’s goal is to have Fellowship the way they did in the first centuries without all the religious “Dogma” to get in the way.

Tom is happily married to his wife Cornelia. They both completed certification in the “National Association of Marriage Enrichment” and have used their studies to help see Yehovah put countless relationships back together. Tom is also ordained by the American Marriage Association to facilitate weddings in Georgia.

 

Cornelia Eubank – Women’s Ministry

Cornelia has a passion for women and has led women’s Bible Study for as many as 50 women at a time. She pours in her natural love for women with a deep understanding of the Scriptures to help change lives amongst the women of the congregation and community.

Together, Tom and Cornelia are servants of Yehovah in caring for and loving the body of Messiah Yahshua and answering the call of Yehovah on their lives.

*As the fellowship body grows additional Elders will be installed to oversee the assembly and to keep accountability among all of the leadership. We believe this is a critical part of any fellowship and we will follow the Biblical model laid out for fellowships and how they are run.

 

Elling Johnson – Elder/Teacher

I questioned the purpose of life when my mother died suddenly in 1996, after spending only one night in her new Big Canoe home. The creator’s call led to benevolence, mission, and conference committees as well as foreign mission trips. Yet, I was unsettled by Church doctrines that just did not add up.

The Church recognizes the Messiah as the author and finisher of our faith and that YHVH never changes. Contrarily, the Church claims the Law was fulfilled and completed by the Messiah. The New Testament repeatedly states “Do My Commandments”; meanwhile, the Church makes the Ten Commandments unbinding. I now the rightfully understand the Ten Commandments are sealed within the Arc of the Covenant, the foundation of all the Law (Torah), and given as an everlasting covenant by YHVH for mankind to abide by.

Please sojourn with us on YHVH’s appointed Sabbath as we unveil the Holy Scriptures in a roundtable study and open discussion, with an emphasis placed on first century Hebrew context.

 

Jim Datillo – Elder/Teacher

Jim and Patrina Datillo have been actively involved in ministry for the past 25 years, working with youth, serving on worship teams and as teachers of God’s Word. In 2012, the Father called them to a new and exciting journey – learning and studying His Covenantal principles as taught within His Torah. It was an exciting time for both, and that excitement continues to this day. Both love studying and teaching God’s Word – sharing their love of the scriptures with others.
In 2014, they made a trip to Israel, where the scriptures seemed to come alive as they toured the Sea of Galilee, Jerusalem and down to the Dead Sea. Both describe the trip as life changing as they walked in the land of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and of God’s Son, Yeshua. Jim works in the Telecommunications field and Patrina a teacher in a private, hybrid school. They have a daughter, Christina and son, John Michael.

 

Mark and Malorie Hubauer – Elder / Children’s Ministry

Mark and Malorie Hubauer have a heart for children and young families. Mark works in public safety and regularly volunteers in youth related community programs. Malorie taught in public and private schools for about 9 years. She also served in children’s ministry as a teacher for 7 years and eventually ran the elementary program in a non-denominational church. It was during this ministry time that Malorie began digging deeper into the Word and Yah opened her eyes to the truth and beauty of Torah.

Eventually, Malorie found the House of Scripture website and began listening to online teachings daily for about a year, one recording in particular resonating with her when Tom said they were praying for more young families to come. Knowing it was time to move, the Hubauers made it a point to relocate closer to HOS and there found the most loving, beautiful community of Believers. Mark and Malorie have been married since 2009 and are blessed with the opportunity to homeschool their 5 children: Savannah, Raleigh, Salem, Warren and the newest addition to the family, Trenton.

Mark joined the Elder team in Spring of 2023 and brings a youthful enthusiasm and a fresh approach to our Leadership Team.

Scott and Rhonda Nickerson – Head of Hospitality and Community

Scott and Rhonda were drawn together by their common passion for Israel and the truth of Torah for Messiah’s disciples. Both have very similar paths, having their eyes opened and faith transformed by YHVH through His Hebrew roots over 20 years ago. Each have traveled to Israel to participate in B’ney Yosef National Congresses.

Rhonda has worked as a volunteer with HaYovel in Samaria. Being in Israel inspires both of them to share with others the importance of the Land today and in our future. Scott retired recently from Delta Air Lines after a career in Meteorology and now focuses on study, writing and teaching, and creating a monthly newsletter for B’ney Yosef North America. Rhonda has home schooled her two children, serves in hospitality and has studied and also tutors students in biblical Hebrew.

We realize the importance of community life in being a disciple of Yeshua and that Torah is meant to be followed in community. Our community vision is to encourage others to live in ways that honor YHVH/Yeshua, and build together a place of affirmation, discovery, growth and discipleship for children and adults.

Scott and Rhonda make frequent trips to North Carolina to visit two young grandchildren.

 

 

Mark Dickerman – Honorary Seal Team 144K Member

Mark served the House of Scripture as an Elder for almost 5 years before being called home in January 2022. No pun intended…. but he truly left a “Mark” on everyone he knew. We came up with the idea of God’s “Seal Team” special forces in the spiritual realm and just like the Navy Seals….. you are a Seal for life. Mark will live on in our hearts as we are grateful to have known him, to have learned from him and to have lived life with him.
