Greg is the President and Pastor of Echo Ministries and has been leading Echo since January of 2007. Greg's true passion and calling is to serve and minister to singles by helping them grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ, and to get them connected to an authentic body of believers. Greg is really excited about starting the Next Generation ministry of Echo because there are a lot of unhealthy and unholy environments fighting for the attention of those in their 20's and 30's. Echo Next Gen is going to help to lead these singles from the darkness into God's glorious light.
Along with working for Echo Ministries, William Illg is a Regional Vice President with Primerica Financial Services. He graduated from Brenau University in Gainesville, GA with his Bachelor's Degree in Theatre Performance. William loves the mission and the values of Echo Ministries. He is happy to be working with a ministry that isn't just about being "social" or "hanging out." He says, "This ministry is about connecting with other single adults while collectively focusing on our Heavenly Father." You can catch him leading Next Gen events, assisting Greg or working in the Echo office. When not at work, you will typically find him hanging out with his wife, Cassie, and son, Beckett. He loves the outdoors and is happy to be on staff with Echo Ministries.
