Meet Our Leadership
Senior Pastor Louis and Barb Oliver and Their Story
In 1984, destiny brought us to The Potter’s House Christian Church in Las Vegas, Nevada. At that time, my wife and I were professional poker players, spending our days chasing after fame and fortune but our lives were empty. Little did we know, however, that we were about to be dealt the most winning hand of our lives.
As we sat in the pews and listened to the powerful and unadulterated preaching of the gospel, we felt something stir deep within us. That day we played our last hand and went all in for Jesus. We bid farewell to our former way of life of gambling. And boy, was it worth it!
I went on to become the Chaplain of the Las Vegas Correctional Centers, touching the hearts and souls of those in need. But our journey didn’t end there.
In 1988, my wife and I headed to Reno, Nevada, with a mission to start a church that would bring hope to the hopeless and love to the lost. And God moved powerfully! Today, we are blessed to lead an incredible congregation that shares our passion for reaching out to those in need. It is truly an honor and a privilege to serve in this way, and we owe it all to God and to our mother church in Las Vegas for giving us the priceless opportunity to follow our hearts and live our best lives.

More About Our Fellowship Of Believers
The Potter’s House Christian Fellowship Church in Reno is a Full Gospel church and a member of Christian Fellowship Churches Worldwide. Since our humble beginnings in 1988, we have grown from meeting in a home to settling into a beautiful church facility that serves our expanding congregation.
We are more than a place of worship—we are a welcoming, engaged community of believers. Our pastors are deeply invested in helping people grow spiritually, meeting them where they are in their walk with God, and encouraging meaningful service to others.
Our services begin with powerful praise and worship, followed by practical, Bible-based preaching that speaks to everyday life. We offer quality nursery and children’s church during every service, and we provide opportunities to give in support of the ministries God is building through our church.
We are a church committed to taking the gospel beyond the four walls. In obedience to Jesus’ command in Mark 16:15, we actively reach our local community, support church planting across the United States, and lead international outreach efforts.
Under our leadership, several churches have been planted, including international works in Mahajanga, Madagascar, and Durango, Mexico. We believe the gospel transforms lives, and we remain committed to sharing that message locally and around the world.
If you are looking for a vibrant community of faith where you can grow, serve, and experience God’s love, we invite you to come and see what The Potter’s House has to offer.
