Preston Centuolo
Pastor Preston believes that teenagers need to find out who they are before they can make sound choices for their future. They need to know what they believe in, what they are good at doing and what their goals and dreams are.
Pastor P’s message is aimed at helping young people figure out what their dreams are, inspiring them to achieve their goals, and encouraging them to be true to themselves instead of sacrificing their goals to peer pressure, violence or victimization.
Preston’s sincere desire is to help youth overcome adversity. He excels in helping troubled kids, because he shows them acceptance, love, and respect. The more troubled they are, the more success he seems to have in relating to them and empowering the message of hope.
His goal is to inspire the leaders of tomorrow to overcome lifes challenges.
“Whether there are problems in their home, their school, or their neighborhood. I want to make our communities a better place to live for all of us. ” – Preston
HISTORY
As a young boy Preston was invited to church by a deacon that promised him jello if he would go. This small effort made a great difference in the life of a young boy that God would eventually call into the ministry.
After graduating high school, Preston followed the call of God by going to Valley Forge Christian College. During his college years he began ministering to teens at a local church. After graduating from Valley Forge, he intensified his ministry to teens through the local church becoming a successful youth pastor serving churches in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
Although Pastor P has continued ministering to teens by serving local churches, his personal ministry has grown beyond the church doors. Preston founded The Youth Alliance in 2000 in order to continue to expand ministry to his community and surrounding communities. Since it’s inception, The Youth Aliance has continued to expand its services to teens while, “uniting the community for the benefit of youth”. Preston’s evangelistic heart and love for people have made it possible for him to be used of God to bring the gospel of hope to teens and adults around the United States.
