| At GraceWay - We Serve with Love One of the best ways to get involved in the life of our church is to serve together with others! We strive to bring joy and wholeness by serving our church and neighborhood through our words and deeds, showing God's love throughout our local community and beyond. GraceWay partners with area missions, including Rise Against Hunger, Leesburg Food Bank, The Lifeboat Project, The Open Door Shelter, and Good News Jail and Prison Ministry, to bring hope and healing to those in need. Caring hearts and willing hands work side by side in a spirit of joy to express God's amazing love. We also support several overseas mission efforts, such as the Kajiado Children's Home in Kenya, The Outreach Foundation, and our sister Church, Sancti Spiritus Presbyterian Church in Cuba, with our financial and prayer support, enabling them to touch the lives of those with the greatest needs. |

| The Reverend DR. IAN LAMONT – Pastor / Head of Staff Pastor Ian was born a child of the church.

Since that time, he has felt God's constant guiding hand upon all areas of his life – psychologically, vocationally, devotionally, and spiritually. A native of Toronto, Canada, Ian graduated from Pensacola Christian College in 1983 with a Bachelor of Arts in Bible and Greek. He then attended Reformed Theological Seminary in Jackson, MS where he graduated with a Master of Divinity in 1986. He received his Doctor of Ministry in 2001 from New Geneva Theological Seminary in Colorado Springs, CO. His doctoral thesis was Building Seeker-Friendly Churches.

In addition to serving as Senior and Transitional Pastor in churches over the years, he has served as a hospital chaplain, Civil Air Patrol chaplain, a church planter, and the Executive Director of the Mobile Rescue Mission.

SUSAN DAY - Executive Assistant to Head of Staff / Church AdministratorSusan serves as the Church Administrator at GraceWay, bringing with her a wide range of professional experience and a deep love for the church.

Kasey is now married to Tom, and they have a son, Vann, who brings great joy to Susan as her grandson. As Church Administrator, Susan wears many hats. From coordinating building maintenance and repairs to preparing session minutes and managing the day-to-day operations of the church office, she helps ensure that GraceWay runs smoothly and efficiently. Her attention to detail, organizational skills, compassion, and steady patience serve both the leadership and the congregation well. Though her role today focuses on administration, her heart has always been for nurturing and encouraging others, especially children and families. She loves all aspects of church life, and her church family is truly her heart. Susan is always ready to roll up her sleeves, get involved, and serve wherever needed.
