Pastor Dr. Nigel E. Lewis
Pastor Lewis welcomes people into a life of faith, belonging, and service. His ministry has taken him from Guyana and Jamaica to communities across the United States, always with a heart for helping people grow in Christ.
A life in ministry
An ordained Seventh-day Adventist minister, he served as a district pastor and evangelist in the Guyana Conference (1986–1990), Central Jamaica Conference (1990–1998), and Northeastern Conference (1998–2018). He was Northeastern Conference Youth Director from 2008 to 2012.
He later served at Atlanta Belvedere SDA Church (2018–2020), Stockbridge Grace Tabernacle Church, and Snellville SDA Company (2021–2023), before coming to Hanson Place.
Learning in service of people
Originally from Guyana, Pastor Lewis studied at Northern Caribbean University, Andrews University, SUNY New Paltz, and California Southern University. He holds degrees in theology, religion, mental health counseling, and clinical psychology.
His learning reflects his commitment to caring for the whole person and walking alongside people through life’s questions and challenges.
