Elliott Sneed - Journey-Brooklyn Pastor
My name is Elliott and I'm the Journey Brooklyn pastor. I also help lead the Journey Leadership Experience here at the Journey. I love to see new things started from scratch, and the process of people taking next steps to grow spiritually as they take the risks. I am passionate about building relationships with people that are far from God, and I also enjoy strategizing about how the church can be most effective in accomplishing God's mission.

BASIC STUFF:
Originally, I am from Louisiana and Texas, where I met and married Heather Ruth, the love of my life! We have been married for 12 wonderful years. Heather Ruth and I were able to pastor and start two churches over the past seven years. We have two children, our 5-year-old daughter Abigail and our 3-year-old son Micah. They are the joy of our lives! We are excited to be a part of a growing church life The Journey – especially being a part of launching a new site in Brooklyn and seeing it reach its full redemptive potential.
