Our Pastor

After the Lord called him to preach, he attended Bible college and met Charis on his first day of college classes. He later received a bachelor’s and master’s degree in Pastoral Studies. Charis received a bachelor’s degree in secondary education.
Gary and Charis came to Grace Baptist Church in 2009 with 17 years of Pastoral experience. Their pastoral ministry includes serving as an assistant Pastor, planting a church, and serving as a senior Pastor.
Gary and Charis were married in 1991 and have five children. Gary enjoys time spent with his family, singing, and weightlifting. Charis also enjoys time with their expanding family, teaching piano to about 30 students, and commission work through her active art studio.
