Our guest minister for July 11th, is Rev. Jerrod Lowry. Rev. Lowry serves as the General Presbyter/Stated Clerk for the Presbytery of Coastal Carolina. Prior to accepting this call in October of 2018, he served as the pastor of Community of Grace PC(USA) in Sandy, Utah for 8 years. He was first ordained in 2006 as a tentmaker in the Presbytery of New Hope. As a tentmaker he served as pastor to St. Paul PC in Louisburg, NC and Associate for Specialized Ministries for the Presbytery of New Hope. He is a proud graduate of Johnson C. Smith Theological Seminary (formerly a constituent seminary of the Interdenominational Theological Center of Atlanta, GA) and currently serves on the Board of Trustees.
Rev. Lowry loves football, has developed a tolerance for running, and enjoys "playing at golf". Regrettably he is a life-long fan of all professional Cleveland sports teams. Above all he is passionate about "equipping saints for the work of ministry" and has enjoyed studying St. Ignatius' Examen as a prayer practice and tool for discernment. He loves to explore, is willing to try, and is not afraid to fail at any attempt to share the good news of the Gospel.
Rev. Lowry is married to his college sweetheart, Molly (a Carolina girl). Together they have three kids - Kerryn, Kaleb and Kendle.
