About David

Pastor David Grisanti, founder and President of MTI, made a commitment to follow Christ in 1970, at the age of 19. In the subsequent years, he has been active in ministry as a teacher at the Calvary Chapel Bible School, Assistant Pastor, Senior Pastor, and now with MTI. After serving as Senior Pastor of Calvary Chapel of Silverdale, Washington for 27 years, he resigned in September, 2014, in order to focus his ministry efforts on training and helping pastors abroad. He began doing just that in 1991, when he was invited to go to Bulgaria and work with a group of young pastors. Since that time he has not only gone back to Bulgaria on many occasions, but has been invited to work with leaders in India, Asia, South America, Africa, and Eastern Europe. It is his passion to go and assist pastors in the countries that do not have the resources that are easily available to Western churches. As he told the congregation of CCS when he gave his resignation speech, “When invited, I want to go to the churches and assist the leaders who cannot afford to fly me there nor afford to pay me to be there.”

David has been married to his wonderful wife Debbie since 1976. They have 2 married daughters, 4 granddaughters, and 1 grandson, and reside in Bremerton, Washington.

    1. Hello Pastor Simon, Thank you for reaching out. Yes, I do work in India and have visited and conducted seminars and conferences since 2007. I would be interested in perhaps meeting with you in order to determine if what I offer is compatible with your hope for pastors training. Please let me know: where in India do you live? Please tell me about Light Life Network.

      Thank you. I look forward to your reply.

      Blessings to you,

      Pastor David Grisanti

  3. Good to see you are still serving the Lord. We met at CCS and you married my precious wife Kelli back in 1989. May God continue to bless you and keep you.
