Our Pastor
Pastor David Wallis
David grew up in Rudyard, Michigan, about 30 miles north of the Mackinac Bridge, where he managed the family farm for about 5 years. During this time David sensed God’s call to pastoral ministry, after which he completed his college education and began seminary. David was graduated from Taylor University in 1991 with a BA in Biblical studies. He received a Master of Divinity in 1995 from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, outside of Chicago, IL. In 1997, David was ordained an Elder in the Detroit Annual Conference.
Prior to being appointed to the Church of the Straits in 2006, David’s pastorates included Pleasant Grove UMC in Indiana, and Grace and Faithorn UMC’s, both in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.
David is married to Lisa. They have three grown and married children and 5 grandchildren.
