Pastoral Team

Pastor Michael & Bonni Hines 

Pastor Michael and his wife Bonni first answered the call to full-time ministry on honeymoon in Jerusalem in 2002 at a time when Israel was being rocked by a relentless wave of suicide bombings and terrorist attacks. After sensing the call of God to stay in the Middle East they spent much of the next decade and a half serving with the International Christian Embassy Jerusalem, living for five years in Israel before relocating to the US in 2007. After many years ministering in churches across the US and leading numerous Israel teaching trips to for pastors and ministry leaders, Michael and Bonni planted Foundations Church in 2018. Their heart is to raise up leaders who can hear the voice of God, minister to the broken and teach the Bible faithfully. They have four Israeli-born children, three in College and one in High School and they currently live in Williamsburg, Virginia.

Foundations Church Williamsburg is a pastor-led church governed by a local elder board with oversight from our Apostolic Council and denominational support provided by Open Bible Churches. Our church leadership is supported by a team of staff members who use their various giftings to carry out the mission and vision of Foundations Church, along with a strong team of volunteers who serve together each week in our Kids, Welcome, Connections, Tech, Worship, Security and Set-up/Tear-down Teams and Group Ministries.
