Pastor Rami was born in Cairo, Egypt. His family came to the United States in
1986, when he was nine due to persecution of Christians in his homeland. Pastor Rami's family originally moved to the Clearwater, Florida area and later relocated to New Port Richey, Florida. After graduating from Gulf High School where he was in the ROTC Program, Pastor Rami enlisted in the U.S. Navy and served as a hospital corpsman. He earned his Bachelor’s Degree from the University of South Florida in the dual areas of psychology and social work. He subsequently worked as a therapist at Youth and Family Alternatives for approximately seven years, while earning his Masters and Doctorate Degrees in Theology from Life Christian University.           

Pastor Rami met his wife Kelley in 2001. They now have two sons, Elijah and Jeremiah.  He previously served four years as an Associate Pastor at First Baptist Church of Jasmine Lakes in Florida. Grassy Valley and Pastor Rami invite the community to come and worship with us.
