Since Pastor Lance was young, he had one dream, and that was to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ. That dream led him to preach all over the world, author “Wilderness Generation” and minister in various roles in the local church. Pastor Lance joined GateWay Church staff in December 2018 as the Executive Pastor working closely with Pastor Ed Kemp on new ministry initiatives and church health.Pastor Lance values investing into his family, wife Olivia, and three kids. One of his greatest joys is making lifelong memories with each one of them and studying God’s word as a family. Pastor Lance & Olivia enjoy DIY projects, date nights and use any excuse to go to the beach. He believes the church is most effective when we teach the Bible accurately and live missionally. He and Olivia are fond of Visalia and are passionate about helping GateWay reach the community.
