Our lead Pastor

Pastor Josh & Carissa Couch

Josh Couch is a graduate of Valor Christian College, where he completed advanced studies in Pastoral Leadership, earning his degree along with a Diploma in Arts in Religion. His formal education, combined with two decades of hands-on ministry experience, has equipped him with a strong foundation in theology, leadership, and pastoral care.


Licensed with the Church of God, Josh has been active in ministry since 2006. He and his wife, Carissa—both natives of Hamilton, Ohio—were married in 2011. Together, they are the proud parents of two children, Ainsley and Malakai. The Couch family is widely known for their passion for unity, God's Kingdom, and mentorship.


Over the years, Josh and Carissa have ministered in conferences and revivals throughout the eastern United States and the Caribbean. They share a deep desire to see the gifts of the Spirit powerfully demonstrated and to remain sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit.
