Chris Suits along with his wife Sarah were saved at the age of 20 while he was attending Oregon State University. Chris felt a burden for youth early on in his walk with the Lord and started serving in youth ministry at their church shortly after finishing school and moving to California. In 2004, a job change took them to the place they both grew up in Southern Oregon where they continued serving in youth ministry at their church before a job transfer moved them up to Astoria in 2007. Shortly after arriving in Astoria, Chris and his family began attending Coastline Christian Fellowship and have been very involved at the church where he has served in youth ministry, as an elder, young adult pastor, and since 2017 as the lead pastor. Chris and Sarah have been blessed with four children, Samuel, Benjamin, Solomon, and Ezekiel.
In 2019, while returning from visiting missionaries in France, the Lord gave Chris an unexpected burden to pray for London while catching a connecting flight at Heathrow Airport. Chris put this in his prayer journal and proceeded to pray weekly for revival in this city. In 2021, Sarah coincidentally found out that she was qualified to apply for British citizenship due to her mother being born in the country which she received in January of 2023. In March of 2023, while visiting the United Kingdom on vacation Chris and Sarah visited Calvary Chapel Twickenham for a Sunday service and proceeded to spend the day with the pastor and his family. Shortly after this visit the pastor informed Chris that he had been praying since 2018 for the Lord to raise up the right man to take over as lead Pastor for him at Calvary Chapel Twickenham and that he believed Chris was who the Lord wanted to replace him.
Chris and Sarah proceeded to pray for direction and confirmation from the Lord regarding leaving their beloved church family in Astoria, Oregon, and moving their family to the United Kingdom to pastor the church there. And over the course of time, the Lord made it clear that He wanted them to proceed with this new season He had for them.
