Leadership

Leadership Structure

There are two positions of leadership at the Well Church: Pastors and Leaders.

We use these terms for language modernity. Pastors are those holding the biblical office of Elder, and Leaders are those who are holding the biblical office of Deacon. All pastors and leaders are expected to meet the Biblical qualifications for their office. Some, though not all, serve in staff roles.

Our Pastors

Pastors share responsibility for the overall vision and direction of the church while otherwise providing pastoral care for those in the church family. Pastors also preach or teach based on their desire and gifting.

Our Leaders

Leaders serve alongside and support the pastors. They help the pastors care for and equip people by using their unique gifts in spiritual or practical roles, depending on their strengths.

  • Geoffrey Douglas

    PASTOR

    Geoff has served in multiple churches throughout his life. Through a series of circumstances, the Lord closed the door on a long season of ministry for Geoff and his family in 2022. After a time of rest, prayer for direction, and deepening relationships in the local community, he and his family helped plant The Well Church. Geoff is married to Ashley, and they have two daughters, Amelia and Aria. They also frequently open their home for foster care. Together, they love sipping coffee, raising children, and pursuing a life of simplicity. Geoff is the owner of Waves IT, providing computer services to the Treasure Coast.

  • Andrew Garrigan

    PLANTING PASTOR

    Andrew entered ministry in his teens and served in multiple roles throughout his 20s. In 2022, he left vocational ministry to pursue personal and spiritual health and prepare for eventual pastoral ministry. God prompted him to start ministries dedicated to spiritual wellness and pastoral care in Port St. Lucie as he worked on his education. In addition to the church, he hopes to launch a local Christian counseling center. He is married to Chantelle, and they love flirting, eating, reading, writing, raising their children, and counseling others. They aim to raise their children to be faithful followers of Christ and impassioned Miami Heat fans - the two highest aspirations for any human being!

    Andrew earned an MA in Theoligical Studies from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary and also trained extensively in counseling.
