Korene Sturtz is a passionate Pastor, visionary leader, and co-founder of That Church in Clinton, IA. Alongside her husband, Pastor Darin Sturtz, she has helped cultivate a thriving community of faith – one rooted in authenticity, growth, and a deep commitment to reaching people, where they are.
Korene’s and Darin’s journey into ministry was forged by a powerful and unexplainable experience involving their sons, Cameron and Caden. It was in that miraculous moment that God stirred something deep and profound in their hearts – a call they could not ignore – and That Church was born. Beginning in their home, That Church has become a beacon of hope in the community. Through every message and prayer, Korene’s life is a testament to the power of saying “yes” to God’s call.
Today, Korene Sturtz continues to lead with unwavering compassion and strength. Her mission remains clear: That Church is a place where lives are healed, faith is ignited, and purpose is discovered. Her book, “A Mother’s Prayer & God’s Miraculous Answer, will be available for purchase.
