Pastor Dan Farcas was born in Romania and immigrated to the United States with his family as a young child. At age 14, he gave his life to Christ while attending a Christian youth camp in Romania, beginning a lifelong passion for worship, discipleship, and ministry.
Dan studied Worship and Creative Arts at Hillsong Bible College in Australia, earned a Bachelor of Religious Studies from Heritage Bible College, and completed his coursework for a Master of Arts in Theological Studies at Asbury Theological Seminary.
Throughout his ministry, Dan has served in worship, youth, young adult, and church leadership roles, including helping plant a church in the Tulsa, Oklahoma, area. He is passionate about raising up leaders, teaching God's Word, and helping people grow in their relationship with Christ.
Dan and his wife, Gina, have three children: Annabella, Joel, and Judah. In January 2025, the Farcas family moved to Minnesota when Dan accepted the call to serve as Lead Pastor at New Life Church.
