Pastor Steve Wall

Pastor Principal (2017 - 2019)

Steve Wall fue pastor principal en la Iglesia Lebenswasser desde octubre de 2017 hasta que falleció el 23 de julio de 2019 a la edad de 33 años en un accidente aéreo. Steve y su esposa Debbie formaron parte del grupo que fundó Lebenswasser en 2007. Steve dirigió el equipo ejecutivo desde febrero de 2014 y también fue presidente de la junta de Ancianos.

Bajo su liderazgo, la iglesia creció exponencialmente. Era un visionario, un pionero y tenía una pasión increíble por alcanzar a los menonitas en todo el mundo para Cristo. Fue clave en la implementación de la transmisión en vivo y los Ministerios Digitales. A través de nuestro ministerio en Youtube, Facebook y la aplicación LW, las buenas noticias de Jesús han acumulado más de 2.5 millones de vistas durante el tiempo que dirigió la iglesia.

Steve también fue compositor y líder de adoración en Lebenswasser. Lideró al equipo para traducir y grabar canciones de adoración en bajo alemán que se lanzaron bajo LW Aunbädunk. Las canciones de adoración traducidas se tocan y se usan en los servicios de la iglesia en toda América del Norte y del Sur.

Steve y su esposa, Debbie tuvieron 4 hijos, Caleb, Brianna, Matthew y Kylee.

¡Steve Wall, siendo fiel al llamado que Dios tuvo en su vida, impactó a decenas de miles de personas en todo el mundo y su liderazgo seguirá sintiéndose en Lebenswasser e inspirará a decenas de miles más!
