Ali Gentry Creech


Executive Director + Founder

Women's ministry is my heartbeat. I have been the Director of Women's ministry at Renovation Church for 8 years and have been on staff for over 11 years. God led me to start Arise PHX in the Spring of 2018. Although we had no idea what we were getting into, God has sustained this ministry and brought more people along for the journey! I'm a speaker, preacher and adventurist. I love to travel in general, but add on speaking at camps, conferences and schools, and I am overjoyed! But mostly, my heart is for the individual to see that they are made uniquely for a specific purpose in this generation.

Favorite Vacation Spot: Sedona is my close-by spot. If I could choose, I'd go to Italy every time though!

Morning person or Night owl? I'm a late-afternoon person. I'm going to get my best work in from 3-7pm.
