PASTOR SHAY & BRIDGETTE MANN

Shay & Bridgette Mann became pastor at The Life Church in October of 2013. Prior to this, they spent twenty years pursuing their passion of student ministry. Over a ten year span, Shay served as Director of Promotion, General Youth Secretary and General Youth President for the United Pentecostal Church International. This season of organizational leadership was proceeded by ten years in the trenches filling the role of Youth Pastor in Atlanta, GA and Texas City, TX.

Bridgette’s love and passion for people is undeniable and she is a perfect complement to her husband. Bridgette directs the “Ladies of Life” ministry and assists with numerous administrative and hosting functions. However, her primary ministry is praying with people; whether it’s on the streets, in their home or as they seek God around the altar.

The Mann’s are blessed with two beautiful daughters, Breleigh & Blair, and they love living in Texas and leading The Life Church!
