Lead Pastor – Gary Teachey

Pastor Gary’s ministry experience spans three decades, which consists of serving as a Full-time Evangelist, Student Pastor, Music Pastor, Associate Pastor and Lead Pastor. His enthusiasm and energy is highly contagious. Pastor Gary’s preaching style is captivating because of his “engaging the audience” approach and sense of humor as he delivers God’s Word in simplistic terms. He is extremely passionate about His calling and the people he leads, and exudes full transparency and genuine love for the body. God called Pastor Gary to Wake Forest Church of God in October 2020 to reach the lost in Wake County and surrounding areas. He is adamant about making disciples by teaching and releasing the body to GO and make other disciples.

He is married to the love of his life, Amy (Marshall) Teachey who is a tremendous asset in ministry by leading Praise & Worship as well being an anointed teacher of God’s word. Amy and Pastor Gary have two daughters, Courtney Varner, who is married and resides in Ft. Worth TX and Cayla who recently graduated from Cosmetology school and resides in Wilmington, NC.
