Faithful Then, Now, & Forever
This year, we celebrate 40 years of ministry in the Pacific Northwest!
Pastors Kevin & Sheila
Kevin and Sheila Gerald have faithfully led in the Pacific Northwest for over 40 years, beginning with their move from St. Louis, MO in 1986. What started with a clear calling and a heart for people has grown into a legacy of lives changed, leaders developed, and communities reached.
Through decades of ministry, they have remained committed to building the local church, developing leaders, strengthening families, and empowering the next generation. Faithful then, faithful now, and faithful for generations to come.
