Meet Our Staff - Crazy8 Ministries

Our Directors

Founder/CEO

Lisa Schwarz

Lisa is the founder of Crazy8 Ministries, an ordained minister of the Gospel, speaker, and published author. She has her Biblical Counseling, Brain Health, and Life Coaching Certifications and has been discipling, mentoring and counseling individuals for more than a decade.

Lisa believes in the “Titus 2” concept of the older ones teaching the younger ones and has her own Biblical mentor of 18 years. God has used her mentor to teach her the foundations of Scripture and its application to her every day life. It was her own discipleship experience and the healing and guidance that it brought that compels Lisa to do what she does. It is her desire to instill hope into hearts with the love of Christ by helping and serving people and teaching them how to maximize their lives; enforcing their purpose. Her desire is, not just to offer spiritual support, but to also meet physical practical needs to those who are in broken circumstances.

Executive Director of Ministries

Paige Martin

Paige attended Texas State University where she majored in Early Childhood education. She taught school in the public school system for 15 years in South Texas. Most of her service was in Kindergarten, but she also taught 3rd grade and Special Education. After moving to North Texas, she pursued her Masters in Counseling through LeTourneau University, graduating in May of 2016. She is a Certified Community Coach (CCC), Certified Professional Coach (CPC), a Certified Case Manager (CCMC) and is certified in Crisis Prevention and Intervention. Her passion is to mentor, counsel, and disciple others within a Biblical framework.

Paige has been married to her husband Lee, since 2009. Together they have 8 children and 7 grandchildren. Since moving to North Texas, Paige has experienced many new things and beginnings, and the Lord has been a guiding hand and her constant source of hope. These experiences have stirred a desire to walk with other women in their “new beginnings”, pointing them to Christ each step of the way.

Her go to verse is Isaiah 43:18-19 “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.”

Executive Director of Administration

Liz Hargrove

Liz is the mother of 2 young boys and worked at Microsoft for 8 years as an event coordinator. Although her formal training is in catering, she realized that her passion and talent really centers in large event planning.

Liz loves people; she loves to reach out and bring people together for support, training and encouragement. Her role as the Outreach Ministry & Connections Coordinator enables her to use her abilities and fervor in planning events, large and small. Liz is passionate about reaching into our community and serving them by the love of Christ and with the ministry of Crazy8.

Liz is very involved in the community; attending chamber events, local charities, and serving as an Ambassador for the Cleburne Chamber. She is a 2016 graduate of the Burleson Young Executive Alliance of the Burleson Area Chamber of Commerce and has been our City on a Hill Coordinator for seven years.

Intercessory Ministry Director

Shirley Greenroy

Shirley is a widow and is retired from the public education system with thirty-two years of service. Her training under Doctor Beth Alves founder of Intercessors International, and eight years of ministry service with Cleansing Streams Ministry, along with other ministries that she has been involved in has given her a strong foundation in intercessory prayer.

Shirley’s role as Intercessor Ministry Director with Crazy8 Ministries provides the opportunity to be a “watchman” in prayer for the ministry, the staff, the residents in the home and the clients. She believes prayer is divinely ordained as the means by which all temporal and spiritual good are directed to us. Therefore, she believes if we ask, seek and knock the windows of Heaven will be opened and pour forth upon Crazy8 Ministries the blessings we need to share with others throughout our community. She says, “There is no other place I would rather be.”

Resale Shop Manager

Brittany Detty

(Contact Brittany to donate to our resale shop)

Brittany is a native of Burleson with a BBA degree in business from UMHB and is a mom to 3 daughters. She has received transformation power in her life through the discipleship classes and trainings at Crazy8 Ministries and desires to be a part of passing that on to others. Servanthood is her redemptive gift and she loves to help out the ministry in whatever way she can. Managing the resale shop fits right into her sweet spot of ministry. She gets to help those in the community and is able to work alongside the ladies in our program, encouraging and supporting them as they continue to grow.

“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.” This verse from John 10:10 has come to have great significance to her as she grows in her passion to serve the Lord and others.
