Director of Christian Ministry and Care – Lynnae Douglas

Lynnae grew up in upstate New York and was taught to love Scripture from an early age. She eventually went to Moody Bible Institute in Chicago in pursuit of being a missionary, but the Lord redirected her steps. There she met and married her husband Caleb. Together, they sensed a call to serve Christ by serving in the church. They went to the North American Lutheran Seminary, from which she graduated in 2018. She and her husband have five children and are zealous to hand on the faith both in the “little church” that is their home, as well as in the wider church to which they’ve been called. The Douglases love to spend time together outdoors, reading, playing games, and just about any sport.
