Pastor Tommy & Mary Garbarini

Tommy was born and raised in San Diego, California. He moved to Chicago to attend Moody Bible Institute, where he would receive his BA in Biblical Studies and meet his wife, Mary. While in Chicago, Tommy also served at a gospel rescue mission, interned in the Presbyterian Church in America, and enjoyed frequenting Wrigley Field.

Sensing a call to pastoral ministry, Tommy and Mary moved to the west coast in order to attend Westminster Seminary California. Tommy graduated with his Master of Divinity in 2026 and received a call from Living Hope upon his graduation. He is committed to serving Christ, proclaiming the gospel from all the Scriptures, and ministering to Christ's church. 

Mary is originally from Mechanic Falls, ME, and has a large family living in Maine and Massachusetts. She's grateful to be back home in New England and is looking forward to setting down roots in the area.
