DENNYBLAKE Senior Pastor

Israel Dennard Blake is currently serving in the capacity of Senior Pastor at Disciples of Jesus Ministries. Pastor Blake has a heart for serving his community to bring unification and glory to God’s Kingdom.

Pastor Blake began his service under the leadership of his parents, Drs. Israel and Barbara Blake. A transplant from Plant City, Florida, he has always worked hard and availed himself to the aid of those in need. From janitorial work to playing the drums, wherever needed, “Denny” has made himself available. In 2009, he answered one of the greatest calls to servanthood by accepting the position of Senior/Lead Pastor of Disciples of Jesus Ministries.

Driven to do and inspire more, he has added to his responsibilities: mentor for at risk youth in the Thomas County/Thomasville area, member of Thomasville Crime Stoppers, Board of Directors for One Heartbeat/InsideOut Nation, Strategic Planning Board for Community Transformation, Board Member for Noble Road Media Group, and Development & Implementation Team for Spark De Thomasville. Pastor “Denny� is intentional about seeing the community he lives in and serves thrive.

The father of five has instilled into the hearts of all who know and love him that family is his first ministry. He is indeed a devoted family man who leads with his wife (Chandra) at his side. Passionate about kingdom work, driven to helping rebuild the community one individual at a time, Pastor Denny Blake is leaving an indelible mark in Thomas County.

CHANDRABLAKE Associate Pastor Alongside Pastor Denny, serving is his wife, associate pastor, Chandra Blake. Together they are as passionate about God's work as they are for each other, and this passion ows into the hearts of the members. Pastor Chandra loves boldly charging the hearts of all who hear her take hold of Christ. She is always a positive messenger and attentive listener. She is the angel apping her wings, wing covering her husband and their children as they go forth together in ministry. Before one leaves her presence, Pastor Chandra is quick to make sure that he/she is saved, set free, and delivered.
