Lead Pastor – Steve and Esther Gudrie
 

Steve and Esther are the lead pastors of Valley Pentecostal Church. They love God, love life and love people and believe that we owe the world an encounter with God. Their heart is for every generation to experience the presence of Holy Spirit and then to live a life of power and character that will transform our community and society.

They enjoy teaching others to recognize Holy Spirit's presence and how to follow His lead so that we may be imitators of Christ and make Jesus Christ known to those who do not know Him.

Assistant Pastor – Curtis and Jenn Gudrie

Curtis and his wife Jenn serve Valley Pentecostal Church as the Assistant Pastor overseeing various departments including youth, “The Bridge” and kids.

Curtis’ desire throughout his 10 plus years of ministry is to see people fall madly in love with Jesus and experience all that He has for them. He believes that we are called to be “Jesus with Skin-On” to those around us, which involves displaying both the love and tangible power that Jesus displayed through Holy Spirit in our everyday lives. Curtis believes that we are all called to live lives that are characterized by the quote: “attempt something so great that failure is guaranteed, unless God steps in” (unkown). He shares his passion to see Jesus made famous with his beautiful wife Jenn, adorable daughter Olivia Grace and handsome son Avery James.

Along with pursuing God’s call on his life, Curtis enjoys playing, coaching, and watching sports, especially football and basketball, and spending time outdoors with his family.
