& WENDY HOUPE
ABOUT
courageous
church
Pastor Benjamin, originally hailing from Kansas City, Missouri, and Wendy, a native of Dayton, Ohio, are the loving parents of two beautiful daughters, Aubrey and Lily. Their family is a harmonious blend, a real-life testament to the unwavering love and incredible grace of God.
Benjamin, a US Army Veteran and a graduate of Rhema Bible College, carries a rich family legacy of ministry. Wendy, a professional in the performing arts, finds deep fulfillment in working alongside her husband. For the past fifteen years, Benjamin devoted himself to serving as a Youth Pastor at Harvest Church in Kansas City, MO, and as the Young Adult Pastor at Word of Restoration in Rosharon, TX.
Guided by a profound calling from God, Benjamin and Wendy felt a resounding confirmation to relocate their family to Florida.
