get to know us

We are an "Ugly" Church
By ugly we mean human, flawed, and imperfect. At the Vineyard, we say, “No perfect people allowed.” We intentionally create a non-religious environment in order to invite people in to experience the beautiful truth that God loves messed-up people, just like us.

We are People of His Presence
We welcome God's interaction in our lives and in our services through the presence of the Holy Spirit. We don't believe in just going through the religious motions; we want to experience the living God in all we do.

We Celebrate Diversity
All diversity—ethnically, generationally, and between women and men. We love being a big family of many languages, cultures, and generations that God delights in.

We Like to Have Fun
We believe that where there is joy, Jesus is near. As we learn not to take ourselves too seriously and to celebrate all that God is and does, we laugh a lot!

Kim & Jamie Stilson
Kim and Jamie have been in the ministry for over 48 years. They spent their first 17 years in ministry leading a church on Sanibel Island, then planted the Cape Vineyard Church out of that church in the mid 1990's.

As Pastors, they've led Cape Vineyard for decades, equipping the church "for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up" (Ephesians 4:12).  

Jamie and Kim have three daughters and 12 grandchildren. When they’re not setting the course for the Cape Vineyard, you’ll probably find them in North Georgia, sitting by a waterfall, or writing in the highlands of Scotland.

Pastor Jasen came to Jesus at Cape Vineyard during High School. If he’s not at a ball field with his kids, he’s probably reading a book or checking fantasy football.

Charles has been in the Vineyard family since he was fourteen. He spends his time outside of church with his wife and kids, and enjoys staking out in the bushes to capture the perfect wildlife photo.

Jaime has called the Cape Vineyard home since 2005, when her daughter was invited to VBS. She's a Jersey-born latchkey kid who loves spending Sundays with her amazing husband, and their five awesome kids and the most precious four grandkids.

Terry gave his heart to Jesus here twenty years ago and now gets to serve as youth pastor.  He's a local firefighter who loves his family but hates cake.

Rick began at Cape Vineyard at age 10, later became the first youth pastor, was called away, but has been back since 2012. He loves being a “Poppi”, RV-ing with Chelsea, dad jokes, and Pickleball.

Natasha was raised up in the Vineyard and wouldn't want it any other way. She's blessed to serve on the worship team and in Youth alongside her husband. When she's not here, she's in Montana visiting her grandbaby, Luka!

Chelsea has worshipped at Cape Vineyard for 14 years, but has been part of the Vineyard family since ‘94. She loves time with her 4 adult kids, being a “Nanni”, and traveling with Rick.

Cari has been at Cape Vineyard since she was young, and she met her husband, Pastor Jasen, here as a teen. She likes coffee more than water, and she loves thrifting. 

Richee first walked into Cape Vineyard in 2015, where he reconnected with his beautiful future wife. He's a diehard Steelers and Mets fan who loves them almost as much as he loves Sunday dinners with his family.

Since age seven, Roxie has called Cape Vineyard home. She spends her free time running, boating, and chasing her three dogs, and her favorite color is cow print.

Dave has called Cape Vineyard home since 2000. He spends his free time with his family, and especially loves hanging out with his granddaughter, Harper.

From the Army to the Vineyard, Cal has centered his life on Cape Vineyard worship and tech. He makes dance music and shows it to people on the weekends.

Danielle and her family moved to Cape Coral in 2021, and immediately called Vineyard home. She loves acrylic painting and bakes hundreds of cookies every Christmas.
