Before being led into ministry, Pastor Larry and his wife, Jodi were on different paths as a police officer and a direct support service provider of individuals with disabilities. Larry, after fifteen years of law enforcement, was called away from law school and called into God's service. Knowing quickly, he walked the path to becoming a pastor with the Assembly of God Churches.

Larry and Jodi, while living in Vermillion, walked with the Lord and volunteered in many areas of ministry including youth group, worship team and the tech team. Larry and Jodi have witnessed how the Lord can change lives and it is their desire that others be able to experience the same thing in their lives.

Larry and Jodi are parents of three adult children and grandparents to four grandchildren, all living in the area.
