Andrew and Rebecca have been involved in serving at Lighthouse in many ways over the last 18 years, including serving on the LT for the past two years. A wonderful highlight for the two of them was serving in high school youth group ministry. They have led homegroups and are invested in building community. They have a passion for getting to know people and see how God is working in their lives. Their desire is to see that Jesus is exalted, to be conformed to His character, and to live as ambassadors of His Kingdom alone. They long for this broken world to experience the kindness and love of God. Andrew and Rebecca see their roles on the Leadership Team as an opportunity to serve and to continue to invest in encouraging a healthy church community where believers thrive and grow closer to God.

Rich and Ashlyn Arnold have been serving Jesus for decades and loving His people at Lighthouse since 2018. They have served on the Missions Board, Worship Team, Connections Team, and have also led a homegroup. The Arnolds bring a wealth of wisdom in leading the Body of Christ much in part to an incredibly faithful season of life when Rich was a pastor at Graham Covenant Church for 14 years. They have seven adult children (and spouses) and 13 grandchildren. The Arnolds work in real estate in several states. In their free time, they love to have people over to their home and to travel. Despite life’s struggles, Rich and Ashlyn have found abundant joy in Christ and in serving with His followers. They are passionate about hospitality, strengthening families, and getting the saving message of Jesus Christ to unreached people.

"I think the Lord has more for me to do, and I still feel called by him to serve here at Lighthouse. I believe in our church’s mission and vision to build God’s kingdom through making and growing disciples of Christ. I see integrity in our leadership, and a shared value in our community for authentic, life-changing, and deepening relationships with Christ. This is the passion and desire of my heart as well."
