Rita Felice

Rita Felice joined Narrow Gate in October 2020 as the Director of Operations. In 2023 she transitioned to Mentoring Director where she is helping pastors to implement their disciple-making plans into their church culture. She brings to Narrow Gate a passion to disciple and mentor disciple-makers for Jesus, and credits Bill and Paula Lohnes with fueling that passion through their personal mentoring and discipling of her. Rita leads multiple discipleship groups each week and mentors both pastors and individuals as they disciple others.

Before joining Narrow Gate, Rita served as a Children’s Pastor for 14 years where she developed and implemented a disciple-making culture among children and families. Hundreds of children came to know Jesus as their personal Savior and began a discipleship process fueled by a partnership with parents and dedicated small groups leaders.

Rita and her husband Marc have been married for 38 years, and have served in ministry together for much of that time. They are blessed with two married adult children who love and follow Jesus. Their greatest joy is to know their children are walking in the Truth (3 John 1:4)
