Empowering others to live authentic lives of deep kingdom impact is my goal, and leading the Sunridge team to give help, hope and home to the world is a joy!
I am blessed to share a full life with Heidi and our kids. Our life's trip has had stops in the Midwest, the South and now here in Southern California. Apart from family, my passion is leadership. I have lived out this passion in both the Church and marketplace.

I would have benefited from a mentor when I was in high school, which is why I feel called to serve high school students specifically. I love providing vision and oversight for our high school environments and working with the students themselves!
As a native Southern Californian, I am originally from San Diego and graduated from Azusa Pacific University. In addition to my church work, there's nothing better than being with my wife and son, coaching football at Murrieta Valley High School and playing video games!

I love that my job is to provide the women of Sunridge different avenues for studying God's Word, because I get to watch their lives change as they come to know Jesus better!
In my spare time (when I'm not shuttling my teenagers from one activity to the next!), I'm a reluctant runner and an enthusiastic reader. I also love to cook and admit that I'm obsessed with watching the Food Network!

I love that my job is to integrate technology as a tool for the 21st century Church. Sunridge has been my home since 1990 and one of my part-time jobs since 2010. You couldn't drag me away from this church!
Outside of church, I am a professional audio engineer, amateur chef and avid reader. One of my favorite pastimes is driving through the mountains. Erin and I are getting married this fall, and I can't believe how wonderfully God has blessed me with her!

I am honored to serve Jesus Christ through our Home Groups, where we can care, share and pray our way to the Father's will. If you are not yet in a Home Group, let's find the right one for you. It can change your life ... it did mine!
This is my 19th year in the Army, and my role as program manager helps to meet the needs of our war-fighters from all branches, by ensuring that our industrial partners produce the best possible equipment with the best use of taxpayer dollars.
Robyn and I love spending time with family and friends. We feel blessed to live in such a beautiful place!

As a part-time pastor at Sunridge, I focus on adult ministries including coordinating Thrive and Group Life, and teaching through our Sunday service messages.
My full-time work is battalion chief with a Southern California fire department. I also love surfing, mountain biking and being "Grampy," and I think I'm cool because I just got my first iPhone! For a sickeningly sweet report including pics of our grandkids' really cute stuff, friend me on Facebook.

| Contact Erin |
When I became Sunridge's middle school pastor, I wanted the kids to know they were important to me so I made it my top priorty to learn everyone's name. In turn, they welcomed me into their world.
When I am not hanging out with middle schoolers at church, I teach full-time at Winchester Elementary School. I love spending time with my wife (my best friend!) and kids, playing baseball, listening to music, playing my guitar, taking pictures, and living the dream!

I recruit, train and lead Sunridge members on mission trips outside the U.S., where we assist established churches in sharing the Gospel and planting new churches.
On Sunday mornings, I serve as Sunridge's prayer coordinator. In addition, I work for e3 Partners Ministry as a church planting coordinator and Nepal country director.

It's been said churches would be wise to invest in their children because they are the church of tomorrow. I believe they are the church of today.
My role at Sunridge is to oversee the children and student minstries with a primary focus as the High School Youth Pastor . Our goal is to partner with families to raise up a new generation of Christ followers.
This June, Melissa and I will be leaving Ohio to get married in Kansas City, Missouri. Two weeks later we will move to Temecula to be a part of what God is doing at Sunridge. While we are definitely overwhelmed by how fast all this is happening, we are extremely excited to get to know our new church family.

I am grateful for the privilege of serving at Sunridge Church! I love helping people connect and encouraging them to use their talents to care for one another, as they grow in the grace and knowledge of Jesus.
Mary and I enjoy working out together at our local gym. For relaxation, I like working around the house and yard, reading novels, and tinkering with cars while listening to great music.

I believe in the value of a story and the process of each individual journey. I am passionate about people discovering their giftedness and partnering with them to give Help, Hope and Home to our community and the world.
Sunridge has been our church home since 1994 and my place of employment after 11 years as a public school teacher. Best days include time with Jim (married since 1982), reading an inspiring book, sharing in deep conversation, planning with a team, playing games and being outdoors.

It is a dream come true to do graphics for a living! I moved here from North Caroline in the summer of 2011 for an internship opportunity with Sunridge. I am now responsible for coordinating all our production and communication efforts such as Sunday morning worship environments, website and logo design, bulletins and signage.
In my free time I enjoy music, hanging out with my incredible fiancé, and Cheerwine, the soft drink of the South!

Growing up at Sunridge I have had the privilege of calling this church my home and serving in Children's Ministry since I was very young. I feel so blessed to be able to now serve on staff as Children's Ministry Director, infants-5th grade. I have a passion for kids and am honored to be joining the team in partnering with parents to share Jesus with their children.
I received my Bachelors Degree and Multiple Subjects Teaching Credential from Hope International University with an emphasis in Children's Ministry. I enjoy hanging out with family and friends and love the warm summer days of Southern California with a Diet Coke.

I am humbled that I get to use the practical gifts God gave me to oversee the finances and facilities at Sunridge. It is my desire to use our resources to share the Good News of Jesus throughout this Valley and beyond.
As a husband and father of two teenage girls, I have my hands full, however when time permits, I like to unwind by playing basketball or an occasional round of golf.

As a part-time pastor at Sunridge, I focus on worship and music ministries. My full-time work is in the technology business, but my true passion is music ministry and so I spend most of my "free-time" on that. I love to be a couch potato (thank God for Netflix) with my wife, who is the girl of my dreams! I also have a great time on the paintball field with my son, and usually come home with bruises.

My desire for the men of Sunridge
is to help them develop a closer relationship with God, so they can thrive as the leaders of their families and form godly connections with other men.
Shelby and I love Temecula because of the great people and fantastic weather. Shelby is as passionate about organic gardening as I am about cooking. I'm a BBQ Jedi who loves to fish and golf, and we both love to entertain family and friends.
