Anne Graham Lotz

ANNE GRAHAM LOTZ was called “the best preacher in the family” by her father, Billy Graham. She speaks around the globe with the wisdom and authority of years spent studying God’s Word. The New York Times named Anne one of the five most influential evangelists of her generation. Her Just Give Me Jesus revivals have been held in more than 30 cities in 12 different countries, with hundreds of thousands of attendees. Whether contributing opinion pieces to a national newspaper or speaking on platforms throughout the world, Anne’s aim is clear—to bring revival to the hearts of God’s people; and her message is consistent—calling people into a personal relationship with God through His Word. Anne is a best-selling and award-winning author of more than 21 books. Her most recent release is Preparing to Meet Jesus, which she co-authored with her daughter, Rachel-Ruth Wright. She is the president of AnGeL Ministries in Raleigh, North Carolina, and served as chairwoman of the National Day of Prayer Task Force.

Gary Hamrick

GARY HAMRICK began pastoring Cornerstone Chapel in Leesburg, VA in 1991 when 18 charter members asked him to become the first pastor of this new, start-up church. Today, Cornerstone Chapel is the church home to several thousand weekly worshipers, and it is Pastor Gary’s desire to equip them through the teaching of God’s Word, relating the truth of the Bible to everyday life in practical, relevant, and often humorous ways. He was ordained by Pastor Chuck Smith and the Calvary Chapel Association.

Pastoring in the shadow of the Nation’s Capital has allowed Pastor Gary various opportunities to meet and pray with Cabinet Secretaries, Supreme Court Justices, and members of Congress. Pastor Gary is on the Advisory Board for The Museum of the Bible in Washington D.C. He also serves as the Chief Chaplain for the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office (the largest Sheriff’s Office in Virginia with 600 sworn deputies and 200 civilian personnel). His radio broadcast “Cornerstone Connection” can be heard weekdays across the country in 27 states and the District of Columbia.

Pastor Gary has been married to Terri since 1987 and they have three grown children (who also serve in ministry) and seven grandchildren.
