LEADERSHIP

Gloria M. Stephen
BA, MA, CRADC, LPC, LPN

I have been serving in Christian ministry for over 45 years. Since being ordained in 1985, I have served the Lord in a number of capacities and at varying levels of leadership. I have been a missionary, an evangelist, an assistant pastor, and a senior pastor.

​

My husband, Wesley, and I have felt the call to minister the teachings of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ to older adults in this season of our lives. We seek to be witnesses of God's unfailing and unconditional love in our community.

​

My academic achievements have allowed me to show God's love to others while employed as a licensed practical nurse, certified substance use counselor, and licensed professional counselor.

​

I am a proud native of North Carolina, spouse of 40 years, and mother of three adult children.

I accepted Christ into my life at the age of 12 and became an ordained minister in 2017. Throughout the years, I have served in ministry alongside my wife, Gloria. I have lead Bible studies, mentored new believers, taught Sunday School, and served as a church trustee.

My passion is to serve the Lord, and to do so with excellence. I believe that every Christian has a ministry call or assignment to carry out. No assignment is too small or insignificant for me to carry out.

​

In this season of my life, I have a strong desire to help believers discover their God-given gifts so they may apply them to reach those who do not know Christ.​

I was raised on the Island of St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands. My parents and grandparents served in Christian ministry for over 80 years in South America, England, the Caribbean, and the United States.
