WHO IS PAT CAMMARATA

With more than 40 years of ministry experience, Pat Cammarata brings a lifetime of wisdom, passion, and pastoral care to people of all ages. He has been married to his wife, Shanon, for 40 years, and together they have two daughters, Emily and Abigail, both married and raising families of their own.

Pat served faithfully as a Student Pastor for over 20 years before stepping into full-time evangelism in 2003. He is the founder and President of There Is More, Inc., a ministry dedicated to equipping, encouraging, and influencing students and adults to make daily decisions grounded in biblical principles. His heart is to see believers live in such a way that their lives become worthy of imitation.

In 2010, while continuing his full-time speaking ministry, Pat planted Carpenter’s Way Fellowship, where he served as Lead Pastor for 11 years. He later joined Kingwood First Baptist Church, serving as Discipleship and Missions Pastor. During his tenure, and under God’s leading, the church launched three new churches in four years—one of which was planted internationally in Thailand.

Pat continues to travel extensively, speaking at youth camps, Disciple Now weekends, retreats, rallies, youth and adult revivals, and winter Bible studies. He also leads parenting conferences and provides youth and adult leadership training for volunteers. In addition, Pat has a deep commitment to strengthening the local church by consulting with student ministers, pastors, and church staff, as well as assisting student ministry search teams during leadership transitions.

Another key passion of Pat’s ministry is leading LENS Seminars—a Bible engagement experience that teaches a clear, practical method for reading Scripture. These seminars equip students and adults to approach the Bible in a way that is powerful, relevant, and life-changing.

Pat Cammarata is a Conference Speaker and has a shepherd's heart and a zealous passion to communicate the Gospel message to adults and students alike.
