In loving memory
Kerry Lord
September 18, 1957 to April 28, 2026
Kerry Lord passed away peacefully at home on April 28, 2026, surrounded by his loving family.
In 1972, he committed his life to Christ, beginning a lifelong journey of ministry, worship, and trust in God's faithfulness.
In 1980, Kerry met the love of his life, Mary Ann, while serving at a special-needs camp in New Hampshire. They were married on June 18, 1983, and shared nearly forty-three years of marriage built on faith, devotion, sacrifice, and love. Together they raised six children, who have inherited their passion for music and their belief that every believer is called to ministry.
In 2002, Kerry and Mary Ann stepped out in faith to begin full-time traveling ministry with their family. Over the next twelve years, the Lord Family Ministry traveled more than 172,000 miles across thirty-five states, holding over a thousand services in churches, camps, prisons, retirement homes, and community gatherings.
Kerry's greatest passion was not building a platform, but encouraging people to trust God fully and live out their faith sincerely.
In later years, he and Mary Ann published a devotional titled Living the Legacy, and he followed this with a memoir, A Venture With GOD, sharing the story of their ministry years.
