About Lisette Fraser
Lisette Fraser is a leader, pastor, communicator and coach. She leads, advocates and inspires others to move towards God’s absolutely best for them. Lisette believes in the local church, knowing it’s God’s ‘plan A’ for bringing hope and healing to a broken and lost world. Lisette has dedicated her career to investing in leaders, young and old, who will impact the next generation and change the world. Born in the Netherlands, Lisette immigrated to Canada as a young girl. Lisette credits her family’s work ethic, grit, authenticity, and love of celebrating for how she lives, loves and leads. She is characterized by her warmth, genuineness, and strategic mind. After completing a degree in Theology, Lisette dove into church ministry, serving in Canada and the US. She has spent the last 20+ years leading youth, college, and family ministries and in the last season serving at the executive level overseeing all ministries at a large, multi-ethnic, multi-site church. Lisette loves opportunities to invest in leaders! Today, you’ll find her serving as the Director of Strategy with the Youth Worker Community (Canada), coaching for the Fuller Youth Institute, teaching for the Coalition for Youth Ministry, guest lecturing at other institutions, and anything else that invests in leaders. If there’s coffee and a great conversation involved, Lisette’s in! Lisette lives in Atlanta with her husband Kyle, their two kids, Abbi & Mattias, and two Australian shepherds.

"Every time I’m around Lisette, I learn something new—about myself, God, the church, and what it means to love our world. She’s passionate about Jesus, and that passion shines brightly in her speaking, her relationships, her mentoring, and her leadership. I would be thrilled to have my own teenagers, as well as any group of leaders or parents, sit under her teaching.
