Larry & Deanna Shrodes

Lead Pastors

From the time they married in 1987 to today, Pastors Larry & Deanna Shrodes have been partnering together in the work of the ministry. Together, they are a powerful unstoppable force in the Kingdom of God! They have been serving as a pastoral team together for twenty-three years, the last eight of which have been in the Tampa Bay area. Love for people and passion for the power and presence of God characterizes their ministry. They have many sons and daughters in the Lord, mentoring many who are following the call to full time ministry today. They have committed their lives to investing and pouring themselves into others. Our lead pastors greatest joy is in building relationships, reaching the unchurched, and lovingly leading God's people to fully recognize who they are and what they can do. They have raised three incredible children who all love the Lord and serve Him in many ways ~ Dustin (21), Jordan (19) and Savanna Rose (13). The Shrodes family makes their home in Wesley Chapel, FL and also have two amazing dogs, Maximus and Madeline Shrodes.
