Lori Spangler
Director of Youth Ministry
Lori brings energy, authenticity, and a deep love for God’s people to her role as Youth Director at Trinity. She is currently completing her Master of Divinity through Asbury Theological Seminary and has a rich background in ministry, having served as a Lead Pastor for several congregations, an Associate Pastor in a larger church, and most recently as a Palliative Care Chaplain at St. Francis Medical Center. Her diverse experience gives her a deep appreciation for the beauty and uniqueness of each church family she’s served.
Lori and her husband, Jason, have been married for over 25 years and have four children: Callie, Jay Cooper, Jude, and Jackson. Their home is filled with laughter, baseball gear, and a trio of beloved dogs—Maggie, Rudy Grace, and Ace. Originally from Winn Parish, Lori was raised by her grandparents, who taught her to “work hard, do good, and love God”—a motto she carries into every aspect of her life and ministry.
