I grew up in the church and was always very active, but it wasn't until I moved away after college that I really made a personal decision to follow Christ. I started reading the Bible and understood that I was a sinner and was in desperate need of a savior. 

My wife, Sara, and I met serving in college ministry and it continues to be a large part of our life as we help lead the Young Adult Ministry at Living Faith. We love serving at Living Faith and witnessing all God is doing through this church community.

The Lord burdened my heart for many years to come to know Him as the true God that Scripture reveals. In 1976, by the witness of three people at work, I came to trust in Jesus as my Lord and Savior. Joann trusted in Jesus as a young girl after watching the movie King of Kings.

It is our greatest honor and privilege to serve the Lord. Together, we host a small group in our home. I also host a LifeGroup. Joann sings to God’s glory in the choir.

love Jesus above all and received Him as my Savior during the Summer of 7/8th Grade. After hearing the story of the prodigal son and truly connecting it to God’s love for me, I surrendered my life to Him. I am far from perfect, and I fall on God’s grace daily. It is my honor to serve Him and His people. 

I serve on the Worship Ministry tech team, in Children’s Ministry and on the Finance Committee. Also, over the years, Kerri and I have consistently led small groups in our home for couples.

The LORD opened my eyes and changed my life in 2003 and I dedicated my life to Christ. My life is abundantly blessed by our Savior who gave me a new heart, new sight and new purpose. It is humbling and a privilege to serve the Lord at Living Faith where God changes lives and works in amazing ways.

I have been blessed to have served as a Small Group Leader, Deacon, Elder and participant of the Nominating Committee.

I became a Christian during VBS at the age of 5. Being saved at an early age, I didn’t find many obstacles to my Christian walk. However, as I approached my high school years, I realized I was being challenged daily to make the right decisions and please God. The Lord provided a group called Campus Life where I found like-minded believers and accountability. While that seems like a long time ago, God has continued to stand by me as I grow in the knowledge and grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.

I serve as a Small Group Coach and a Christian Service Brigade Leader.

I became a Christian as a child and have been attending church my whole life. I am originally from Florida, but in 2009, Lisa and I moved to Lisa’s hometown of Farmingdale. After moving to NY we began attending LFCC. I have been involved in various ministries throughout most of my life and enjoy serving in whatever God has me in at that time. 

I presently serve as a Youth Leader, Small Group Leader, and a Small Group Coach. Together we have also been involved in College Ministry, Finance, and the Media Team.

My journey to a meaningful relationship with God began over 25 years ago. It all started when a friend witnessed to me not only through words, but also actions. We are truly blessed and honored to be at the service of Yahweh. God is powerful but also personal, big enough to hold the whole world in His hands yet small enough to reside in our heart. We therefore endeavor to “press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called [us] heavenward in Christ Jesus (Phil 3:14).

I presently serve as an Usher and as a Ranger at Crusade Service Bri-gade. In the past I served as a Round Table Facilitator, Mission Committee member, and Elder. My wife Stephanie is a Choir/Praise Team member and a small group leader.

After living far from the truth for most of my adult life, my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ called me out of the darkness into His marvelous light. Every day I look forward to what He has in store for me and how I can serve Him, until that glorious day I stand in His magnificent presence in hope of hearing those words “Well done, good and faithful servant”. 

I have served as a small group leader, an usher, in the Care Ministry, and more recently, as a member of the Missions committee.

I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior almost 50 years ago. I was not able to see my need for Him until coming to a very low point in my life. My life changed forever on that day. I experienced what it was like to have true purpose and joy. Andi became a Christian several months before me. We began seeking the Lord together and He has guided us through life’s joys and trials. 

Andi and I presently co-lead a small group and I am also a Small Group Coach.

I was raised in a Christian home, thanks to my Grandmother. She made sure to bring my older brother and I to Church every Sunday. Eventually, my mom got saved and sought to have my brother and I immersed in the word of God. It was then that I gave my life to Christ at the approximate age of 12. However, it wasn’t until about 19 years ago, where my relationship with Christ took off on a true personal relationship. Ask me about it one day, I’ll be happy to share. 

I have the privilege of serving as a men’s lifegroup leader, and leading a small group with my wife. I serve on the Finance Committee and assist in the Food Box Ministry.

I was raised in a devout Catholic home but walked away from God. The Lord was gracious and patient with me. He used my wife to draw me back to Him as I surrendered my life to Jesus.

I have been joyfully serving at Living Faith over the years as an Usher and in the Care Ministry. My wife and I lead a couples Small Group and both serve at the Connection Center. I have also served on a number of Mission Trips including to the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico and Stockport, England. I am humbled by the opportunity to serve the congregation in this capacity.

I was raised in a Christian home and received Christ as my Savior at age 13. Later in my twenties, I made a full commitment to serve Him with my whole heart. This decision resulted in a career change from teaching to Christian bookselling. 

I have served as an Elder, Small Group Leader and Coach, First-Serve Coach, and Men’s Round-Table Leader.
