Chavis Ministries Website

A safe place...

We don't claim to have all the answers, but we know the One who does.

We offer retreats and seminars, and private workshops for ministry couples in need of a mentorship getaway.

Married 49 years and serving 40+ years in Pastoral Ministry; we have learned a few things.

The valuable times we shared with other pastoral couples definitely helped us maintain our faith and family responsibilities.

We have learned that taking time to rest, recharge and revive our private relationships

gives us the strength and passion to give our best as we serve in public ministry.

We have raised three sons - Brocc, Cortt, and Kyle - all married and in full-time ministry.

Family is a high priority with us - and we especially enjoy spending time with our ten amazing grandchildren!

We have retired from a lead pastor position and are making ourselves available -

to come alongside the parsonage families - who may need genuine, authentic mentors.
