Pastor Tom Wagers was born in Newport News, VA and grew up in Amity, MO and Baltimore, MD. He graduated from Patterson High School where he participated in cross country and music. His proficiency in music earned him a scholarship to Peabody Conservatory of Music but he believed that God had called him to ministry. His next four years were spent in Northeast Bible Institute, Northeast Bible College and Valley Forge Christian college - all the same school. Once again, he used his musical abilities. In the following years, he ministered as music director/minister, youth and associate pastor in North Carolina, Cape Cod Massachusetts eventually discovering Damariscotta, Maine. Pastor Tom serves Lincoln County Assembly of God and also serves as hospital chaplain at Lincoln County Health Care and with the Lincoln County Sheriff's department and Wiscasset Police.

He has a dog named Nutella, a rescue pup from Lincoln County Animal Shelter. His heart and his passion is summed up in a writing of St. Paul, "For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!
