Pastor Vince Crouse, Lead Pastor

Vince has been serving at LifeStream since July 2015. He had previously ministered on the New England District Church of the Nazarene since 1991. Although Vince was raised in northern Baltimore County he lived in Massachusetts for 36 years. He has earned a Master in Counseling Psychology and a Master of Sacred Theology.

He and Diane have been married for 31 years. They have two children. Their daughter Katelyn and her husband Junior, have two sons, Drew (age 5) and Caleb (age 3). Their son Michael loves being an uncle and sharing life with his nephews.

Vince has previously ministered as a staff pastor, senior pastor, district staff and most recently as chaplain at his alma mater, Eastern Nazarene College. He is very excited to be returning to pastoral ministry at LifeStream. He loves providing pastoral care, connecting with others, encouraging spiritual growth, and serving with others in building the Kingdom of God.

What Vince enjoys most is being with his family, especially his grandsons. He loves a good laugh and is drawn to learning, whether it is about people, education or just exploring a new interest.

His life verse is 2 Timothy 1:12b “I know who I have believed in and am persuaded that He is able to guard what I have entrusted to him until that day.”
