Aaron Pringle

Aaron grew up in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, with parents who were passionate about missions. They bounced around in a few different churches, but landed at Freedom Valley Church in his teenage years, where he met his wife Candace. Together, they now lead that very same church, and are passionate about reaching the lost with the gospel. Aaron leads his church in multiple missions trips every year, all around the world, and disciples people on a daily basis in his role as lead pastor.

He and Candace also are raising three children, and were eager to get Collision's resources in their kids' hands, as well as into their ministry. They believe in the mission of Collision wholeheartedly and can't wait to see it spread in their area. In his spare time, Aaron has many hobbies, which include playing his guitar (and leading his worship team), photography and videography, sports (coaching his son's baseball team and disc golf), and more. 

Aaron went through a season of health challenges that stretched his faith and made him grow as a disciple of Jesus. He was diagnosed with end-stage renal failure in the summer of 2018, in their first year of leading the church, but has now lived with a kidney transplant and is doing better than ever! It's now a huge part of his testimony about trusting God and seeking His Kingdom above all else.
