Cathy Crippen's story is one of God’s redeeming grace and faithfulness. Though she grew up in church, she wandered from her faith until the Lord powerfully saved her in 1980. That life changing encounter set her on a new path of devotion and service to Christ.
In 2002, Cathy met and married Founding Pastor Henry Crippen. Together, they ministered side by side as co-pastors at Word of Life, faithfully leading and serving their church family. Their partnership in ministry continued until Pastor Henry’s passing in 2020.
Following his homegoing, Cathy remained steadfast in her calling, continuing to shepherd the church as pastor. Through every season, both joyful and difficult, she can testify to this truth: God is faithful!
