Michael LaBrie, Operations Team
Pastor LaBrie attended Texas Bible College in Houston, graduated with a degree in Theology, and is now a licensed and ordained minister with The United Pentecostal Church International.
As an area business owner, one of Pastor LaBrie’s strongest desires is community involvement. He has served on several community boards, including the Beaumont Yacht Club, the local chapter of the Salvation Army, the Southeast Texas Food Bank, the area religious community endeavor of Some Other Place where he served as President for many years, and CAPP (Clergy and Police Partnership).
For many years, Pastor LaBrie served as the Coordinator for the Texas District Family Camp Meeting and Texas District Ministers’ Conference, held annually involving over 300 churches and 600 plus ministers. He has served over ten years on the Texas District Men’s Ministry team in disaster relief and serves on the Texas Bible College Board.
He has been instrumental in assisting Texas District churches during times of natural disaster and traveling abroad to minister in foreign fields.
We are thankful for the pastoral partners we have worked with this past year. They have sacrificed, organized, and worked hard to serve their communities. They have rallied their churches, even when their own families have been hard hit by storms, and have stopped to serve their community, often putting their own needs on pause until others’ needs have been met. We are thankful to serve with them and for them.
