Meet Our Pastor

Pastor John and Bethany LaTorre
In 2003, John LaTorre was radically delivered from the bondages of heroin addiction and given a restart at a new life through Jesus Christ. Upon his deliverance, Johnny B spent nearly 3 years at Teen Challenge in Boston, MA where he grew as a disciple of Christ, a leader of His people and a lover of His Word. In 2006, he moved to Chicago to attend Moody Bible Institute. He received his Pastoral Studies degree in 2010 and immediately enrolled in the Masters of Ministry program at Moody Theological Seminary where he is currently studying for his Masters of Ministry degree. He was married in 2009 to his partner and best friend Bethany. The following year they were blessed with their first daughter Jayla. Johnny B has served in the Humboldt Park neighborhood since 2009 with the hope of seeing the same transforming power he experienced shed abroad in as many lives as possible. In January 2012, John assumed the role of lead pastor for the English congregation in Humboldt Park where he still currently serves.
