CHURCH history

Jack Lee, Jr. came in May 1985 and remained until July 1986. Ted Cotten was called March 1987 and retired from the ministry in June 1990. During Ted's tenure the church ordained one of our members, Rick Manies, to the ministry. During this interim period, Rick Manies and Curt Estel acted as co-associate pastors. Dr. Craig Skinner, professor from Golden Gate Seminary delivered the Sunday morning messages until Mike Reed came in 1990.

Mike Reed served seven years before leaving March 1998 to serve as a Chaplain in Cochran Prison. Tom Seesing came as Intentional Interim Pastor to guide the church through a self-study program of it's membership, and community. Tom Seesing served from April 1998 to March 2000 when he felt the study had completed it's purpose. Dick Kalebjian followed as Interim Pastor from April 2000 until September 8, 2000 when we received Mike Abdollahzadeh as our present Pastor.
