Lee lives in Rutherfordton, NC with his wife, January Murdock Howell and their children: Pilot, London, and Coleman. The Howell family are members of Cornerstone Fellowship Church in Rutherfordton. Lee played football at Western Carolina University where he met his wife, January Murdock Howell. He later transferred to Catawba Valley Community College where he received an associate degree in turfgrass management. Lee has spent more than 20 years in the turfgrass industry in golf maintenance and agronomic sales. He currently works for Ferti Technology as the Southeast Sales representative. Lee was raised in a Christian home in Robbinsville, NC but testifies that he failed to surrender his life to our Lord and Savior until the age of 34.  "The understanding and experiences I have had after that day have been more awesome than I could ever explain. I’m so very excited for the opportunity to serve as the president of United Christian Missions. I pray that God will use me to unite Christians all around the world and encourage them to be uncompromising seekers of the truth of the amazing Gospel of Jesus Christ."
