Lisa Ann Moss Degrenia

Lisa Ann Moss Degrenia was born in Tampa, Florida, one of a long line of native Floridians and teachers. She didn’t grow up attending church. As a teen, she started attending a local Baptist church with her boyfriend. At age 16 she accepted Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior and was baptized. A few months later “the guy left, but God stayed.”

Lisa first found God through music and thought she would be a high school choral director. God had other plans. In 2000, Lisa received a Master of Divinity degree from Duke Divinity School and was later ordained a United Methodist minister in 2003. She has served congregations in Largo, St. Petersburg, DeBary and Sarasota, Florida.

In addition to serving as a pastor, Lisa enjoys leading retreats, photography, theatre, and writing. She is indebted to the many wonderful mentors and teachers in her life, including her mother who first gave her a love for words.
