STAFF // Ross Thomas

Susan and I each connected with Grace while in college. That decision changed the course of our lives in a great way! We witnessed the Lord do powerful things in our own lives and in lives around us.

I joined the staff team in 2003 to focus on reaching teens in the Raleigh area. The Lord brought Susan and I together in 2009 and grew a passion in us to see new generations of believers experience Jesus in all stages of life. We now live in Cary where we are raising six children.
