Meet the Sapps


Dustin and Shelley Sapp have been members of Northside since 2002. Dustin has served as a Deacon and both serve in the children’s ministry through our extended childcare service. Dustin and Shelley was also a part of our satellite strategy in Fishers in 2005. Dustin enjoys technology, hanging with friends, and watching UK sports. (N I T) Shelley is a professional scrapbooker, sewing extraordinaire and local bookworm.

The Sapps knew God had great things in store for Hamilton County when the North Campus got started. “Fishers is a young, growing, vibrant community that is screaming for God’s hand. Hamilton Village must be an integral part of that community through servant leadership. We can’t be a social group, a small “worship gathering”, or just a church. We have to be a part of Fishers – one that it depends on to see the Kingdom.” This mindset will allow Hamilton Village to plant other “villages”. Dustin and Shelley see Hamilton Village and Northside sharing a common goal in reaching Fishers – expanding the Kingdom. “There is no reason that shouldn’t be done with a dependence that makes the whole greater than the sum of its parts.” Paul said in Corinthians, “The eye cannot say to the hand, ‘I don’t need you!’ And the head cannot say to the feet, ‘I don’t need you!’” Together, we can be the Body of Christ.

Dustin and Shelly have three children; Evan, Nate, and Elizabeth. On Fridays, we will pray for the Sapp family as they provide servant leadership in Fishers.
