Charlie and Lisa Walters direct the Cathedral of Praise Singles and
Young Married Ministry. They met and were married at Cary Church of God in Cary, NC. They are celebrating their
seventh anniversary on April 6, 2009. After moving from the Raleigh/ Durham area in 2003, Charlie left a sales career
to attend seminary. Feeling the call to minister through counseling, he has completed his masters degree in human relations
and is currently pursuing the Ph.D. in Counseling at Liberty University.
His future goals are to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit into full-time state licensed counseling, as well as,
to teach at the college level. He is currently working as a mental health clinician and counselor. Charlie is also presently assisting Bishop Miller
with counseling at the church. Lisa maintains a busy pace
as Sales/Marketing Manager of TCM in Lynchburg, VA. She is also a 1994 graduate of Lee University.
They started A.L.I.V.E. ministry at RVCP to mentor young professionals and young
married couples. The name stands for ‘adults living in victory everyday’. Lisa was among the founders
of Cary Church of God’s singles ministry, helping to grow it from 12 to 70 members through small group ministry and
activities. Charlie learned through his tenure as a student in Chapel Hill, NC that few churches were helping those
just forming new Christian relationships. They joined their efforts to mentor singles, single parents, and young couples
in spiritual development at Cathedral of Praise.
They
have been blessed with two wonderful sons, Charlton and Kenton. They hope to squeeze in some playtime with their dogs,
Dutchess and Winnie, and a few road trips to see the TARHEELS.
