OUR PASTORS
Pastors Darius and Melba Dunson met at the University of West Georgia and have been married for over 25 years. Together, they’ve raised four children and faithfully served in ministry for more than two decades. For the past 15 years, they’ve worked in multiple pastoral roles at Victory Church in Norcross, GA, eventually becoming Associate Campus Pastors before stepping into the role of Campus Pastors at Victory North Cobb in January 2022.
During their time leading Victory North Cobb, the church experienced significant growth. Now, with the blessing and support of Victory’s senior pastors, Johnson and Summer Bowie, the Dunsons are expanding into their next phase of ministry. They are launching A18 Church (pronounced A One Eight)—a vision born from the Acts 1:8 legacy introduced to them by the Founding Pastors of Victory Church and their spiritual overseers, Dennis and Colleen Rouse.
With a heart to reach Cobb County and beyond, they are so excited to birth a house of prayer, worship, and solid biblical teaching that will help people of many cultures Know Jesus, Grow in community, and Go tell others about Him.
