Our Mission & Vision

Jesus made it pretty simple when he told us to love God with all we are, love our neighbor as ourselves, and to go and make disciples of all nations. The best way for us to accomplish these things is to help people to connect with God through an authentic worship experience with a biblical message; grow in faith and knowledge by being part of a small group, and serve our community to demonstrate God’s love.

Leadership Team:

Our leadership team recognizes the authority of God, and realizes that we are shepherds who serve under the Chief Shepherd, Jesus Christ. We desire to devote ourselves to prayer and to the ministry of the Word. Our passion and goal is to equip the believers for the work of the ministry until we all attain maturity in the fullness of Christ.

As the primary teaching pastor, Lance has a passion for communicating God’s love that draws us to faith and obedience to Jesus. He has served at Light & Life for eight years. He and his wife, Janine, have three children.

Janine DeLarme, Children’s Ministries

Janine is gifted at finding fun and creative ways to communicate the truth of the Bible to young people and helping them to feel accepted and loved in a safe environment.

Andy Yager, Worship Leader

Andy has played guitar all his life in various bands, but it was only recently that he heard his calling to be a Worship Leader.
