Rev Lisa Henry
“When we see ourselves wrongly, we often end up in the muddy pit of worthlessness with its attendant despair” (Trevor Hudson ). “The glory of God is a human being fully alive” (St. Irenaeus). Since Jesus listened to his Father’s voice, trusted it, and claimed its truth for his own life …so should we! Come! Let us be encouraged anew in our identity, faith, hope, and love as citizens of the kingdom of God.

Lisa’s philosophy of ministry is, “I am a Christ-follower, and I joy in the opportunity to serve in His Kingdom. I serve faithfully in all positions as if serving the Lord. The Holy Spirit is my guide. The Scripture is my standard. I purpose to use the discipline and knowledge acquired over years of ministry service and what I learn in seminary wherever God opens the door.”
