Our Lead Pastor
Ky Faciane
Ky Faciane serves as the Lead Pastor of The Met Church in Houston, Texas. Raised in Pensacola, Florida, Ky fully surrendered his life to Jesus Christ in 1999, igniting a deep passion for God’s Word, the Church, prayer, and evangelism that continues to shape his ministry today.
Over the years, Ky has served in multiple pastoral roles and pursued theological training to faithfully shepherd the local church. He holds a Master of Divinity from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary and is currently pursuing a Doctorate of Ministry.
Ky married his college sweetheart, Christy, in March 1998 after meeting at the University of Mobile. Together, they have built their life around faith, family, and serving the local church. They are the proud parents of three children: Laura Leigh, a Baylor graduate working in Manhattan; Lilibeth, a University of Arkansas student studying fashion merchandising; and Will, who is continuing his education at Texas A&M University.

Our Elder Team
At The MET, our team of Elders are shepherds and spiritual overseers. They ensure compliance with our by-laws, approve the annual budget, and provide accountability for our Lead Pastor as he reports to them as a body. Throughout the New Testament, Elders are described as managing aspects of the church as well as shepherding the church.
