Jim and his family came to us at the end of May, 2021. He is very relational, with a heart for helping people grow in deeper relationship with Christ and with others. Jim was the Lead Pastor at Tulip Street Christian Church in Mitchell, Indiana, for five years, and prior to that, he served as Discipleship Minister at Mount Pleasant Christian Church in Bedford, Indiana, for four years. Before entering the ministry full time, Jim worked for the U.S. Department of Justice as an Immigration Officer, and the Indiana State Police as a Trooper, before an injury cut his law enforcement career short.

Jim received his Master’s Degree in Pastoral Ministry from Master’s International University of Divinity in Evansville, Indiana, in 2008. In 1992, he received his Bachelor of Science Degree in Mathematics, with a minor in Psychology, from Indiana University. Jim and his wife, Guyanne, have three children, Hailey (24), Ashton (22), and Eli (18), all of whom made the move to California with them.

Amy is the wife of a Pastor at another local church in the area and a happy mother of five. Using her skills and working knowledge of church ministry life, she was happy to re-enter the workforce as her little brood is growing up and not so little anymore. Amy is excited to dig in and help wherever the need arises.
