About Evangelist Kayla LaFleur

Evangelist Kayla LaFleur, a native of Mount Dora, Florida, has been bold, outgoing, and passionate about people from a young age.

Her journey in ministry began at just 11 years old, when she represented her church at youth conferences. At 15, she boldly prayed before hundreds of people at the A.M.E. Annual Conference. Even as a young girl, she could often be found in the park witnessing and sharing the love of Christ with people others may have overlooked.

At 16, Evangelist Kayla recognized that God was calling her into ministry and began speaking with the guidance and prayers of her mother. At 25, she fully surrendered her life to Christ, and at 32, she officially accepted her call to ministry.

After a season of preparation and waiting, God entrusted Evangelist Kayla with the vision for Embraced by Grace Ministries, an evangelism outreach ministry committed to embracing men and women from every walk of life.

Built on the belief that ministry must go beyond the four walls of the church, Embraced by Grace reaches people where they are through revivals, prayer in the parks, prayer lines, feeding the homeless, and uncommon church services.

A devoted mother to her two sons, Kameron and Knox, Evangelist Kayla considers motherhood one of her greatest blessings.

Her own childhood experiences and traumatic hardships became part of the foundation and passion behind her ministry, giving her a heart for those who feel forgotten, rejected, broken, or unreachable.

Evangelist Kayla's life assignment is simple yet powerful: to reach the unreachable, embrace the overlooked, and compel those who are lost to come to Christ.

Her testimony is a living reminder that God can take the places that once caused pain and transform them into platforms of purpose, healing, and ministry.

Foundational Scripture

1The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;

2To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;

3To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.

Isaiah 61:1–3 · King James Version

Come and see what grace is doing beyond the walls.
