Larry Lazarus

Larry counts it an honor and privilege to serve the flock of Cheverly Baptist Church, having been installed as its lead pastor in January of 2025. Prior to that he served for sixteen years as a teaching elder at Joy Community Fellowship (EFCA) in Pitman, NJ.

Larry is exceedingly grateful to be charged with the weighty responsibility of studying and preaching God’s Word. But he is even more grateful for knowing the Lord and being saved by His amazing grace. Growing up in a Jewish family outside of Philadelphia, Larry came to embrace Christ as his Lord and Savior during his senior year at Penn State University. After spending a year completing an internship with the Chicago Bulls, he moved back to State College, PA, where he met his amazing wife, Michelle. Together, they have three delightful children (Halle, Felicity, and Noah).

In his free time, Larry enjoys a morning cup of coffee with Michelle, NFL and college football, playing golf, and going on long walks to pray and/or listen to sermons and podcasts.
