Pastor
Nathan Chitwood
Nathan grew up in Plainfield, Indiana just outside of Indianapolis. He is a 1993 graduate of Lincoln Christian College in Lincoln, IL and majored in Christian Ministries. He was in youth ministry from 1989-2009.
Nathan and his family have lived in Carmi since 1993, and know that God has called them to minister in this area through the new work with Living Hope.
Nathan is married to Sharon, his lovely wife of nearly 23 years. They have a great love for each other and enjoy doing ministry together. Sharon is highly involved currently in our ministry to both children and youth as well as many other areas.
They have been blessed with four children: Brandon who is 21 and a Junior at Lincoln Christian Universtiy in Lincoln, IL, Josh who is 18 and a Freshman at North Central University in Minneapolis, MN, Allison who is 15 and a 9th grader at CWCHS, and Luke who is 13 and a 7th grader at CWCMS.
Nathan and his family are Indianapolis Colts fans, and Cubs & White Sox fans. Nathan loves to read, listen to music and spend time with his family. He loves God's Word and believes it is the source of all truth. His relationship with God comes first, then his wife and family, then the ministry.
