Lead Pastor
Gary Gray
Lead Pastor
Pastor Gary has been the pastor of Lift Church for 15 years. He and his wife Rhonda have three great children; Jordan, Lucas and Olivia. Gary wasn’t raised attending church; he spent much of his childhood and teen years playing music in the bars of Tennessee.
After becoming a Christian at age 17, most of his adult life has been spent here in Venice. Music is still a big part of his life and ministry — but he gets his greatest joy from preaching and teaching God’s Word and watching the church family grow in Christ.
