“From the very young to our seniors, God is calling us to provide hope for generations.” –Kevin Berry

Kevin & Renee Berry
Pastor

Pastor Kevin was born in Lansing and has attended Mount Hope with his family his entire life. Kevin felt God calling him into the ministry at the very young age of 15. At that time, he began his studies with Berean College and was applying for credentials with the Assemblies of God at the age of 16. As a high school student, he was mentored by his pastor, Dave Williams, and invested his time as a volunteer in youth ministry.

Kevin entered full-time ministry in 1989 as the assistant to the Youth Minister of Mount Hope Church and then served as Youth Minister from 1993-2007. He then served Pastor Dave Williams as the Executive Team Leader for five years before being appointed as Pastor of Mount Hope Church in February 2012.

Kevin and his wonderful wife, Renee, have a beautiful daughter, Sarah and six grandchildren. It is their desire that the entire Mount Hope family is the best fed, best cared-for, best protected family on the planet!
