Lead Pastor: Patrick & Laura Grach
Patrick is the founder and Lead Pastor of Lifehouse Church. While God laid this church-planting vision on Patrick's heart back in college, the process did not begin until 2003 when he and Laura moved to Hagerstown, Maryland. While Patrick and Laura are both originally from New York, they have ministered in the tristate area since 1999. Patrick and Laura are graduates of Northpoint Bible College in Haverhill, MA (formally known as Zion Bible College), both earning bachelor’s in Biblical Studies. Patrick has a minor in Pastoral Ministry and Laura has a minor in Christian Education. Patrick also holds an MA in Counseling from Regent University in Virginia Beach, VA.
Patrick feels privileged and honored to pastor Lifehouse and is not afraid to talk about any subject, keeping his sermons practical, relevant, and humorous. He also enjoys hiking, camping, skiing, and golfing, and is frequently looking forward to the next opportunity to compete in a marathon, triathlon or mud race that comes his way. Laura has been serving on staff at Lifehouse Church since 2010 while also holding down the fort at home. Patrick and Laura have three daughters, Rebecca, Carissa, and Bethany, and three sons, Daniel, Matthew, and Caleb.
