OUR LEAD PASTOR

Buddy Kelley

LEAD PASTOR

Buddy Kelley is the Lead Pastor of The Foundry Church. He and his wife, Carrie, serve together with a shared passion to see people transformed by God’s love and made alive in Christ. Buddy considers his most important calling to be his role as a husband and father, and together he and Carrie are raising four kids, JD, Levi, Livie, and Cara to love Jesus and serve His Church.

Buddy had an encounter with Jesus that transformed his life at the age of 17. Since then he has been pursuing after God. He holds a degree in Biblical Studies from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary and is currently pursuing his MDIV from Liberty University. He has served in various roles in the local church ranging from a janitor to now Lead Pastor. 

Buddy does not take his position for granite and understands the seriousness of his call to pastor. He desires to see all people come to know Christ, fall in love with the Word of God, and live a life led by the Spirit. He is excited to see God work in and through the Foundry Church!
