Church Leadership

Founding Pastor

The Followers Church is being founded by pastor Russell Frame. He and his wife Michelle moved their children, dogs, cats, and horses from the hills of southwest Wisconsin to Idaho, responding to God's call for them to establish a new church in the area which would focus on Jesus and his gospel through the bonding of true community and biblical truth. In 2006 Russ and Michelle helped plant the first video venue campus for Hidden Valley Community Church in Richland Center, WI. There they helped a core team of about a dozen people get organized and progress through a public launch into a weekly attendance of around 150 people. From this launch a new church body grew steadily to include worship and small group involvement of about 200 people currently. Russ served as the Director of Worship for this new site and helped lead it for two years before God called him to plant a new church. Working with the Acts 29 church planting network and Vintage Faith Community in Spokane, WA, Russ is working with the larger Church to ensure this new local church body has a solid foundation and the resources needed to be successful and faithful to God's purpose. The Frame's are happy and excited to now be in Idaho and continuing to serve God's family by building a new community of believers here.

Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul?"  -Matthew 16:24-26 (ESV)
