Jeremiah Gruenberg - Pastor

Jeremiah Gruenberg was born in Hawaii in 1977, when his parents were pastors of Grace Chapel of Honolulu. He spent ten years in the Los Angeles area, ending in 1999, when he graduated from UCLA with a degree in English. He then returned to Hawaii to work as a writer and editor.

Over the next few years, the people of Grace Chapel of Honolulu became like a second family to Gruenberg. Although he had a love for the Lord since his early childhood, it was not until returning to Hawaii that he began to truly realize the calling on his life. His love for his fellow church members made it easy for him to take on responsibilities at Grace Chapel. Beginning by leading the Sunday morning worship once a month, he has grown into his current ministry as associate pastor. He was ordained in April of 2006.

Since the end of 2004, Jeremiah Gruenberg has been the editor of publications for The Living Word Fellowship, working remotely from Honolulu.

Gregg and Debra Gray - Pastors

Gregg and Debra Gray have been active in the Living Word Fellowship for more than thirty-five years. In the 1970s, they pastored Grace Chapel of Newport, California; from 1988 to 1993 they pastored Church of His Holy Presence, in Anaheim, California. They are currently pastors of Grace Chapel of Honolulu. They also serve The Living Word Fellowship in a unique capacity, by leading and coordinating the efforts of Christian businesses. Their gift in this area became clear when they grew their small Bible cover manufacturing business into Gregg Gift Company, a multi-million dollar corporation.

They were inspired to start their business after hearing John Robert Stevens' teaching on the vision of "Kingdom Business," a holistic application with which Christians could integrate their spiritual life with their everyday jobs and business. In 1999, they felt that God was leading them to sell their business. Gregg Gift Company was, and continues to be, the leading Bible cover maker in the United States.

After selling their business, they relocated to Honolulu where they now counsel dozens of entrepreneurs in Hawaii and throughout The Living Word Fellowship churches. The Grays also oversee the publication of a quarterly newsletter called the "Kingdom Business Connection." This dynamic couple's desire is to bless, impart, and teach the ministry of giving in a practical way to both church and community.
