Executive Director

Larry Bragg

Larry has been the executive director of First Priority St Louis Metro East since January 2023. Larry served our country for 22 years in the Air Force. Upon his retirement from the Air Force Larry entered into the ministry as a youth and outreach pastor. After 16 years as a pastor Larry was called to be a manager and director for our local Chick-fil-A.

His heart’s passion is to see students come to know Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior. He’s passionate about students hearing the gospel of Jesus Christ before they graduate high school.

Larry got involved with First Priority because he loved the idea of serving with students again and the ministry of FP, helping students reach students in schools.

He’s been married to his wife, Pam, for 39 years and they have three sons. Joshua is married to Kylie and they have three children: Dylan, Landon, and Cadence. Matthew is married to Danielle and they have one son, Elijah. Phillip is married to Nichole and they have two children: Peyton and Camden.
