Tom Kenney
​Program Chair

Tom graduated from Virginia Tech in 1975 with a BA in Business Administration. While at Tech he was nurtured by InterVarsity Christian Fellowship and joined their staff upon graduation, serving the Vanderbilt campus in Nashville from 1975-1978. Having benefited from the works of men like J.I. Packer and John Stott, Tom earned a Masters of Divinity at Westminster Theological Seminary in Philadelphia from 1978-1982. Part-time work in small group ministry at Chelten (Conservative) Baptist Church convinced him that the church was his calling. In 1982 the Tabernacle Church of Norfolk (where Tom grew up) began work on the Peninsula and called him to pastor the church planting effort of Peninsula Community Chapel. Tom and his wife Mabel have been with the Chapel since it started in 1983. They have four grown children.
