Chris and Patience Brakebill
Executive Directors
Chris and Patience have been married for nearly 20 years. They carry on the work as a 3rd generation Brakebill family to run Potter's Clay. They have been in/around ministry work their whole lives. Their children, Jaylen (16), Kiptyn (15), And Kantyn (10) are also involved in ministry work. Chris, Jaylen, and Kiptyn make up the worship team at The GAP Fellowship church (founded in 1992 by the Brakebill family to be a home church and a safe church for those involved in escaping domestic violence situations). Patience teaches the Potter's Clay Praise Dance Team.
"We are so grateful that the Lord has chosen us to be His hands and feet to those in need. We are willing to give up our lives to help. Potter's Clay, to us, isn't a job or a workplace. It's a calling and we stand before the Lord and do what He tells us to do. These ladies come in and are welcomed into the family and become a part of our lives forever."
