OUR LEADERSHIP

Jon Holaday

Senior Pastor

Jon Holaday is the Senior Pastor of Calvary Gulf Coast. Though Jon grew up in the church, he came back to the Lord in 1996 and answered the call to serve the Lord by serving the Lord's people. He attended Calvary Chapel Bible College and was a graduate there. In 2005, Jon, his wife Melissa, and two children heard the call to leave the comforts of home in Missouri and move to Mississippi's Gulf Coast to plant a Calvary Chapel. By God's grace, Jon & his family are still staying the course and are excited to witness and be a part of what God is doing along Mississippi's Coast.  God's mercy has truly been poured out.

Ryan Howell

Assistant Pastor

Ryan Howell is the assistant pastor at Calvary Gulf Coast. Ryan’s family began attending Calvary Gulf Coast when he was just four years old, and they have been a part of our church family ever since. In 2019, Ryan fully dedicated His life to Jesus Christ and began to follow after Him. In 2021, Ryan felt the Lord calling him into the ministry. That calling would lead him to Calvary Bible Institute in Yucca Valley, CA where he spent ten months being trained up in the Word and in the ministry. After graduating in December 2023, Ryan came back to Calvary Gulf Coast and currently serves as our assistant pastor.
