Reverend Leon A. Corbin, Jr. was born in Richmond, Virginia on December 15, 1966. He was baptized and gave his life to Christ at Cedar Street Baptist Church in Richmond, Virginia where he served on the junior usher board as a child. He was educated in a number of schools districts including Richmond City, Henrico County, and Baltimore, Maryland. After graduating from Richmond Community, he attended Penn State University at Behrend College in Erie, Pennsylvania. Leon rededicated his life to Christ years later, serving as a laborer in a local Pentecostal church. He was later ordained as a deacon, served on the board of trustees, and in 2004 he was licensed as a minister.

Leon joined New Canaan Worship Center in 2007, and now serves in leadership over the Youth and Children's Ministry alongside his wife, Reverend Latasha Corbin.
