Pastor Chuck & Susan Ellsworth, Lead Pastors

Chuck and Susan pioneered Real Life Assembly of God in Peculiar, Missouri in 2014. Pastor Chuck's vision for the Cass County community brought him to Peculiar from Kansas City where he pastored for more than 10 years. 
Both Chuck and Susan were Pastor's kids. They're both talented musicians who bless the church body with their singing, preaching, and genuine hearts for people. 
Their adult children, Jordan and Danielle, frequently visit the church and serve on the music ministry team, too.

Troy & Staci Jordan, Worship Pastors

God called Troy and Staci to help Chuck and Susan found Real Life after serving with Chuck and Susan in a Kansas City church before 2014.
Staci directs Real Youth, the teen ministries program. Troy leads the music and arts ministries as well as the production technology ministry. 
Their daughter, Christina, also serves in the production technology ministry. When she's in town, their daughter Hannah joins the music ministry. 

Tristen & Nicole Taylor, Youth Pastors

God called Tristen into full-time ministry when he was at Youth Camp, and he has followed that call ever since.  He earned his Bachelor of Arts in Theology from the School of Urban Mission Bible College.  
Tristen and Nicole were then called into Youth Ministry and are excited for the opportunity to minister to Peculiar's youth community. The heart of their ministry is to pour into the next generation and watch them grow in their calling and purpose that God has for every studen.
