Rev. Debra A Groller - Lead Pastor
Pastor Debbie, once a critical care nurse for some 20 years, was one day suddenly called into full time Pastoral care for the glorious Gospel of Jesus Christ and His people. After several years of serving in a multitude of areas in the local church she was again called out suddenly into unknown territory. That territory is known today as Debra Groller Ministries, Inc. The Lord has been more than faithful (Ephesians 3:20-21) in every area of His calling because, while the path before was unknown to her, it was not unknown to God. Her calling and passion is to win the lost for Christ. She has experienced the saving power of Jesus all over the world from Russia, to Africa and India. However, her primary calling is to empower the believer to walk in the full Gospel that Jesus bled and died to provide, not some of it but all of it. Her burning desire is to “save the saved”! She has an insatiable love for Israel and the chosen people of God, the Jew, which is demonstrated by her leading and continuing to lead many trips to the Holy Land. Her teachings are consistently rooted in the roots of Judaism and the one new man of Jew and Gentile - one in Yeshua! The call on her life can be summed up by something she often says. ”I am living to tell ALL He died to say!” Pastor Debbie has been married to her wonderful husband Ray for 44 years and they have 4 children - Ray, Eric, Christopher, Missi and two wonderful Yorkies named Faith and King David. They are the grandparents of Rowan, Jackson, Hadley, Davy, Weston, Coulton, Arlo and Delaney. This Ministry was formed by the heart of God Himself and is a living example that ”No weapon formed against you shall prosper”! Isaiah 54:17

Pastor Joshua Merlino - Campus Pastor
My name is Pastor Joshua Merlino I am husband to Melissa Merlino and father of five beautiful children three girls Alyssa, Adriana, Isabella, and two boys Ethan and Johnny. I have been a bricklayer for 25 years and now we operate a small masonry company. I’ve been serving in ministry for 10 years. Bricklaying provides income while ministry provides outcome. My leadership roles consisted of addictions ministry and prison reentry while also serving at our food pantry. I am also the Director of community engagement at the Camden dream center. In December 2021 I was ordained by Pastor Keith Davis of Evangelism Today Christian Church in Camden New Jersey. My heart is to reach souls by preaching the Gospel and strengthening believers by the washing and sanctification of the Word of God! We believe in Matthew 25 ministry to go outside of the four walls of the church and meet the needs of the people. Mark 10:45 says For even the Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom to many. With this example in mind I passionately walk in the vocation of our Lord, as a bond servant!
