TIM IAMAIO, SENIOR PASTOR
Tim grew up in the church but was not converted until the age of 27 after years of rebellion. Since then, the Lord has given him a desire to see others grow in their knowledge of God’s Word and their love for the Lord. He and his wife, Sherri, who serves as our Women's Ministry Coordinator, have been married for 17 years. Tim has his Master's in Biblical Studies from Reformed Theological Seminary in Oviedo. On May 16th, 2016, he accepted the call to become the pastor of Grace Fellowship after years of decline. Since then, the Lord has been faithful to bless the consistent expository ministry, preaching through Galatians, 1 Peter, The Sermon on the Mount, many of the Psalms, Colossians, John, Mark, Proverbs, 1 & 2 Timothy, Revelation, Ruth, and 1 & 2 Samuel.
As our vocational pastor, Tim leads primarily in vision, teaching, and preaching, having an early desire for Grace Fellowship to be a people who T.E.L.L. We know that the Lord uniquely placed him in Sanford at this time to theologically and pastorally lead this congregation. Tim is humbled to use his gifts in service to Christ and His bride. There have been many ups and downs, but now, by God’s grace, there has been a spiritual and numerical revitalization into a thriving congregation that loves the Lord, His Word, and His people. This was accomplished through the Spirit’s work through preaching, evangelism, discipleship, and in instituting elders and deacons, all in submitting our faith and practice to the holy Scriptures. All Glory to God! Pastor Tim’s testimony
