Our Pastors
David & Ginelle Payne
Pastor David and Ginelle, married in 1992 right out of college, have spent their lives in the local church! Ginelle is the daughter of pioneers of faith in New England, Ernie and Randa Frye, and David, a transplant from Kansas City, was raised by parents David & Nancy Payne who were deeply involved in leading and building the local church there. After years of serving her father’s ministry, and David’s corporate work, God called them to full-time ministry in 1999. Seven years later, they, and their three children, Ashton, Kelsie & Dakota, invited forty people to be part of launching a new, relevant, life-giving, church plant called Lifesong Church.
While meeting for an entire year praying, preparing and planning the launch of Lifesong, the prayer-bathed dream of a church community relevant to the lives of people, presenting the truth of scripture in a relevant way, caring for its community, and endeavoring to be a place where the Love of God is known and felt took shape; but there was no place to meet. After visiting the movie theater in Millbury with some friends, Pastor David was prompted to pursue it as our first church home! God opened doors and accelerated connections and with just a few months of final preparation to launch, Lifesong was able to open its doors at the Blackstone Valley Cinema in Millbury with 394 people showing up to worship, connect and pursue Jesus!
Since the very beginning, the whole family have given their best to honor Jesus with their lives through the local church! Now with two grandsons running around the church, their lives are more full than ever and they continue to lead our church, in the pursuit of reaching 2% of Metro-Worcester, helping them Know God, Live in Freedom, Discover Purpose, and Deliver Hope!
