Greg Davidson Laszakovits will begin on Jan. 1, 2026, as interim district executive minister for the Church of the Brethren’s Northern Plains District. He lives in Elizabethtown, Pa., and will serve half-time in a hybrid working style that will involve traveling to the district as needed.
He was ordained by the Papago Buttes congregation in Pacific Southwest District in 2002 and in pastoral roles since then he served at Elizabethtown Church of the Brethren for 15 years and also has been an interim pastor at congregations in Mid-Atlantic and Middle Pennsylvania Districts. He brings international experience from a term as mission coordinator of Igreja da Irmandade-Brasil (the Church of the Brethren in Brazil) and also directed the Office of Peacebuilding and Policy (formerly the Washington Office of the Church of the Brethren) for three years.
He currently owns and operates GDL Insight, which offers coaching, training, and consulting services for congregations, other nonprofits, and business organizations.
