Church Leadership
Chris Allen
Lead Pastor
Pastor Chris is super excited to join Grace Fellowship Church as we "reach up, reach out and grow together". Chris was the lead pastor of churches in Ontario and Washington. In his "former life" he was a youth pastor and served on YoungLife staff. He received a Master of Divinity from Calvin Theological Seminary and a Bachelor of Arts in General Ministry from Lincoln Christian University. Chris' favorite theologian is NT Wright and his favorite theological word is "inaugurated eschatology" (look it up). His biggest passions in ministry are preaching, pastoral care and discipleship.
Chris feels "at home" when he is spending time with his wonderful wife, Anna and their three boys (Keane, Finley and Aston). He also loves game nights with friends, training for 5K's, listening to progressive blue grass, and watching soccer (Go Liverpool FC!). Chris and his family can't wait to make new memories with us!
