Steven Servius

Headmaster

Steven joins us from Florida, where he served in Christian education for 9 years. He also served his church in various roles including pastoral intern, deacon, Sunday School teacher, youth leader, media director, and Adventure Club teacher.
 
His passion for ministry and a desire to see a generation of children trained up as disciples of Christ brought him to Marion. A lifelong lover of learning and an avid reader, Steven has a strong love for classical Christian education. He is excited to lead a school where a wonder for God and His world is cultivated in the hearts of students, while their minds are expanded with a robust education. Steven and his wife, Candace, have been married since 2022 and have one child, Samuel. The Serviuses enjoy walking, reading together, and fellowshipping with their church and school families.
 
Steven holds an International Baccalaureate Diploma from South Fork High School (Stuart, FL), two Bachelor of Arts in History and Religion from Williams College (Williamstown, MA), and is pursuing a Master of Divinity at Covenant Baptist Theological Seminary, as well as certification from the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors.

Dr. Mark piacentini

Elder

The word of God is amazing in its transformational power, simplicity, and depth. Scripture is absolutely amazing showing us the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Mark loves the simple faith of children and their immense curiosity to understand Christ and the world that they live in. Mark is amazed how Jesus loves his people and shows them his love.
