Meet Our Staff and Leaders
Vern & Mary Peltz (Pastors)
Pastors Vern & Mary have been in the ministry for over 30 years. From pastoring churches which had hundreds of people - to new church plants that began with just one family - they have a wide range of pastoral experience.
They Pastored 18 years in Colorado and then moved to the Cambridge, Minnesota area in the Spring of 2004 for only one reason: God told them to. The entire move to Minnesota was very supernatural. It was all directed to them via visions & dreams.
Since the inception of Word of Life in Minnesota, one thing has stood at the forefront of their hearts: God is going to do something very supernatural in this area & state. They feel they've been moved here to be a part of what God is going to do in this region.
