Andrea Dillie
Administrative LeadAndrea grew up in Oshkosh and has quite the different background from the rest of the staff here at Terrace Shores! Andrea grew up in a family that was consumed by addiction. By the time Andrea was fourteen she was doing drugs everyday and was suicidal. It was only by the grace of God that she survived! In 1995 she met Tim Dillie, a native of Markesan, and they were married in 1998. It was through Tim and his faith that Andrea came to faith in Jesus. Tim and Andrea have two sons, Tristan and Gavin. Today, Andrea is so grateful for the undeserved love and protection God gave her during those dark days and for the many blessings she has. More than anything, Andrea wants her story to give others going through dark times and addiction a hope for a future. Click here to see Andrea’s video testimony.

Church Leadership
Jesus Christ is the Head of His Church, and each member of His church has been entrusted with His Spirit, spiritual gifts, and responsibility to help the Church be healthy (1 Cor 12:13, Eph 4:11-16). In light of this, we value a congregational government that meets quarterly to make decisions together. Each January we elect members from our congregation to serve in various leadership roles. Here is the list of those who are serving currently.

Gary Zacharias
Pastor EmeritusPastor Gary is now on to other pastures, having been senior pastor of Terrace Shores from 1991 to 2025. Previously he and his family served two other churches in lead pastoral ministry, and also as missionaries to the Dominican Republic and Venezuela (where Josiah—who wrote this—was born). He graduated from Moody Bible Institute with a double major in Bible Theology and Evangelism, the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh with a B.S. degree in History and Master of Counseling Psychology, then attended Trinity Evangelical Divinity School where he earned his Master of Divinity and Master of Theology degrees. Gary ministers with his wife, Carmen (who also graduated from Moody, pictured), who adds singing, medical expertise, and dancing to balance.
They have four children: Katie, Kara, David, & Josiah, and also 8+ grandchildren who all love them dearly. Now retired, they plan to park their Camper Van in front each of their kids/grandkids’ houses throughout the country, staying (as mom said) “until they get sick of us, and we’ll go to the next one.” Plus old friends, family, missionaries, and remembrances along the way.

Mark Sina
Prev. Assoc. Pastor; Snr. Pastor of River Valley Alliance ChurchMark was born in Minnesota but grew up in Watertown, WI. He was raised in a Christian family and came to faith in Jesus at a young age. For schooling, Mark graduated from Nicolet Bible Institute and then transferred to Oak Hills Christian College where he graduated with a B.A. in Pastoral Ministries and Biblical Studies. Mark is currently studying online at Moody Theological Seminary, working towards a Masters of Divinity degree. Following his graduation from Oak Hills in 2018 Mark married Katya, who he met at NBI. They have a daughter Naomi and a son Matthew. Mark was not always on board with serving God with his entire life, but in his life, he has come to realize God is worthy of far more than Mark could ever give Him. He is thankful for the faithfulness and grace that God has shown him, along with the patience God has had with him. His aim in life is to help people understand who God is and to know Him on a personal level.
