Tim and Diane Sistrunk have been happily married for 16 years. With Diane as his ‘partner in ministry’, they work hand in hand to fulfill the vision and calling of the Lord. God called them to St Petersburg, Florida in 2007, where they served as the Associate Pastor, under Rev. Matthew Maddix. On August 24, 2008, Tim and Diane Sistrunk were elected as Pastor and First Lady of The Life Center..

Timothy L. Sistrunk was born in Jackson, MS to Jerry and Mary Sistrunk, on December 21, 1973. He received the Holy Ghost at the young age of 6 and was baptized in the lovely Name of Jesus Christ. During his junior year of high school he made a lasting impact and witnessed to thirty-five of his classmates receive the Holy Ghost and be baptized in the lovely name of Jesus Christ.

Since accepting his calling into the ministry in 1993, Tim has served as a music director, outreach director, youth pastor, assistant pastor and pastor. While serving as outreach director in Caledonia, MS, he and his wife began a bus ministry after attending Soul Winners Boot Camp in 2006. They began going into neighborhoods and reaching out to the children of less fortunate. They watched as the ministry grew from seven to over eighty-five + children and teens. The ministry began with one 15 passenger van and through the consistent contact and faithful care; a bus soon had to be purchased. Through the growth of the bus ministry that local assembly has now had to build a family life center. To God be ALL the glory and honor!

Outside their passion for reaching and winning the lost, they enjoy living life to the fullest; spending quality time with family and friends, listening to all types of music, visiting Starbucks to read and relax, traveling, taking nice walks along the beautiful beaches of Florida as they watch the sun set, Tim loves to play and sing southern gospel, and Diane loves to cook and entertain guest.
