Being raised in pastor’s homes, with grandfathers serving as pastor’s as well, Jeremy and Bri’Ann continue their heritage of working in the ministry today. Jeremy began playing the drums in church at age 13, and Bri’Ann began leading the FCOTH choir at age 15. As of today, they continue to work together in music as the Worship Pastors here at FCOTH, where they strive to create an atmosphere of worship, allowing God’s presence to enter, ministering to every person at every level of need and understanding.
