Pastor Dave & Rebecca Ballard

Senior Pastor
E-mail Pastor Dave & Rebecca Ballard

Dave Ballard and his wife Rebecca first came to Living Stones Fellowship in 1986 when they moved to Duluth as newlyweds.  They immediately stepped into a life of ministry together.  Over time they have led youth ministries, produced dramas, led worship, organized retreats and conferences, done counseling, and taught Sunday School.  In 1995 Dave received his ministry credentials with the Assemblies of God.  In 1999 Dave left his job as a photojournalist and stepped into full time ministry as the Lead Elder at Living Stones.  God gave him a ministry vision of “connecting the needs of people with the power of God”.  Since that time he has worked to fulfill that vision and build physical and spiritual relationships to further the Kingdom of God.

Working together, the Ballards have dedicated themselves to build a strong church community based on releasing the power of the Holy Spirit in its midst. The Ballard’s believe God wants to change lives and the world using His church released in the power of the Spirit and the gifts of the Spirit.  Dave has also used his teaching gift and has travelled to other countries to teach at mission bases.  The Ballards have 7 children, and 4 grandchildren, all involved in ministry of some sort.
