Pastor Dana Tatum serves with dedication and compassion as the Young Adult Pastor at Christ Worship Center in Houston, a role he began in January 2025 after faithfully shepherding the Youth Ministry from 2012 to 2024.  His journey with Christ Worship Center began in 1999, marking over twenty-five years of active membership and service.

Guided by the mentorship of Apostle Ed Johnson and Overseer Marilyn Johnson, Pastor Dana has continually sought God's direction, embracing new seasons of ministry with humility and a servant’s heart.  His passion lies in guiding youth and young adults to a deeper understanding of God’s word, empowering them to discover their purpose and make a positive impact in their communities.

Pastor Dana is known for his active participation in a range of church initiatives, including service on the birthday committee and coordinating meetings and projects for the Young Adults group. He has supported community outreach with Pastor Cathy Comer of Triumphant Glory Ministries and performed in gospel plays by Houston’s Debra L Atkins to inspire others through creative arts.

Pastor Dana extends his ministry beyond church walls, touching lives as a T-Mobile employee where he supports and encourages customers and co-workers alike with wisdom and faith.  In June 2025, he married Minister Ebony Tatum.  Their shared vision and complementary skills have strengthened their ministry, allowing them to reach a wider audience.

A gifted communicator, Pastor Dana enjoys public speaking and bringing the Word of God when called upon to do so.  He enjoys a range of hobbies such as writing poetry and skits, drawing, editing, and working on digital graphics.  His warmth, vision, and dedication continue to bless the Christ Worship Center family, shaping the next generation of believers with hope and purpose.
