Meet the Team

After visiting the Los Angeles Dream Center in 2002, Pastor Paul began to gain a vision for benevolent ministry. As youth pastor of Park West Church, he began using teenagers to serve widows and single parents in the church. His heart to serve the poor and needy only continued to grow, but it would take more than a decade to see his dreams come to pass with the launch of the Knoxville Dream Center in August of 2014.
 
In 2015, Pastor Paul became Campus Pastor at Park West Church Dutch Valley.
Located just next door to the Knoxville Dream Center, the relationship between the two present untold opportunities for building the Kingdom of God here in Knoxville! Pastor Paul is married to his wife Charity, and has four children; Olivia, Ava, Ezra, and Kai.  

Tommy has been a long-term volunteer with our Under the Bridge outreach for 30 years, but now has moved into our Teams Coordinator position!  His heart for the hurting and broken is contagious and loves to pass that along to visiting mission teams and volunteer groups.  You will find Tommy and his wife Kim serving Under the Bridge every Wednesday.   

Our Administrative Assistant, Charity Harris, joyfully assists the executive team and the Knoxville community with our motto: We Get to Serve! Charity is the wife of our founder, Paul Harris. They have four amazing children, an awesome son-in-law, and are expecting their first grandchild! Charity and her family also serve in a pastoral role at Park West Church. In her free-time she enjoys bible studies, journaling, and fitness. Being an eye-witness from the humble beginnings of the Knoxville Dream Center has her in awe of all that God has accomplished through the amazing team at the Knoxville Dream Center and looking forward to all that is still to come. Charity’s priority in life is to simply fulfill her ministry that God has entrusted to her according to 2 Timothy 4:5 “But you should keep a clear mind in every situation. Don’t be afraid of suffering for the Lord. Work at telling others the Good News, and fully carry out the ministry God has given you.”
