Biography
Daniel Thomas Fusco (born December 31, 1975, in Freehold Township, New Jersey) is an American author and lead pastor of Crossroads Community Church in Vancouver, WA.
Early life
Fusco was raised in a spiritually nominal household and came to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ in April 1998 during his final year at Rutgers University. After a few years as a professional musician and bassist, Fusco transitioned into pastoral ministry at Calvary Chapel Marin in Novato, California.
Career
Fusco spent his initial years as a pastor planting churches and founded Calvary Chapel New Brunswick in New Jersey; Calvary Chapel North Bay in Mill Valley, CA; and Calvary San Francisco in San Francisco, CA.
After being ordained in 2002, Fusco was sent out to plant Calvary Chapel New Brunswick, located in New Jersey. In November 2006, that church was turned over to his successor so that Fusco could move back to the San Francisco Bay Area to plant more churches. While in the Bay Area, Fusco planted Calvary North Bay in Mill Valley, CA. In 2010, while continuing to pastor the church in Mill Valley, Fusco planted Calvary San Francisco. In 2012, Fusco turned over both churches to move to Vancouver, Washington, to become the lead pastor at Crossroads Community Church, where he presently serves. He is also the founder of the Calvary Church Planting Network which helps facilitate church planters.
Fusco is also a writer and a featured contributor to "Preaching Today" where he has published articles with Leadership Journal, pastors.com, and Calvarychapel.com.
