Equipping Class

My name is Lori Lind and I joined the church staff in January 2016. Before that I volunteered in the church office for many years. I have been a church member since 2005 and I enjoy the women’s Bible study. I am married to Allan and we have 3 beautiful children and 2 precious grandchildren. I love quilting and crafting.

I’ve been attending CVCC since I was two years old, and I have loved growing up in this church. This community has been like a second home to me; I’ve made lasting friendships and I’ve been truly blessed with the mentors and leaders I’ve met through the different ministries that have helped me throughout my life.

I was hired on staff in the summer of 2021 and am now working in the front office as a ministry support assistant, and I love it! I get to work with an uplifting and encouraging staff while still being able to glorify God in my work of supporting and helping the ministry leaders with their tasks. In addition to being on staff, I volunteer in the high school ministry where I am a small group leader for two grades of girls. With both positions, I desire to make lasting connections with the people that I get to serve, and support them in strengthening their relationship with Christ.

I am currently attending Cal State Fullerton as a Child and Adolescent Development major, and I will be graduating in the spring of 2023. I am studying to become an elementary school teacher, and I can’t wait to be a light in the classroom. I enjoy hiking, going to the beach and the mountains, hanging out with my family and friends, going on adventures, and being outdoors. I also grew up in a family that loves sports, so I really enjoy going to baseball or football games or even watching them on TV as well!

It has been such a blessing being able to work at CVCC having had grown up here for nearly my whole life. This church has always been a home to me growing up and it continues to be so as I enter into this new season as the Creative Arts Manager.

I officially entered into ministry here after I graduated with a BA from the School of Cinema and Media Arts at Biola University in 2021. A few years ago I never would have thought that I would be working in ministry, but God has faithfully led me into this new position, and what a joy it has been!

I am passionate about many different artistic endeavors; from film-making, to photography, to graphic design, to just about a dozen other things. I am excited to use the many talents God has bestowed upon me to serve the creative direction of our church.

When I’m not working on one of the many projects that I have going here at church I enjoy writing music, reading, drinking coffee, and spending time with friends. However, the other great joy in my life is being able to serve as a leader in our junior high department.

I’ve been attending Chino Valley Community Church with my family since 2005, and I love being part of this incredible church family. I was homeschooled through high school, and then attended California Baptist University where I received my BA in English in 2013. I’ve served in many different areas at CVCC, including children’s ministries and events like Sports Camp and VBS, and I joined the worship team shortly after high school. That ministry has been my passion ever since, and after taking a year to study abroad in Ireland and get my MA in English, I returned and joined the CVCC staff in the summer of 2019 as the Worship Arts Assistant.

Later that year, I met my (now) husband Peter through a dating app. Our initial conversation was about the proper ranking of the Star Wars films. In April of 2021 I stepped into a full time role at CVCC as the Ministry Support Administrator and am thoroughly enjoying the administrative and communicative duties of that role. I still very much enjoy being part of the worship team here, and when I’m not at church I might be at Disneyland with my husband or at home baking or playing nerdy games.

I joined the CVCC staff in August 2018. Before that I was a Project Coordinator/Manager for an equipment/construction company. My wife, Janine and I have been attending CVCC for 18 years and where I accepted Christ as my Savior during Easter 2000. I enjoy playing all kinds of sports, as well as serving in Children’s Ministry. Janine and I have been married since 1989, and have 2 sons, Kevin and Bryan.

Hello everyone! My family and I have been attending Chino Valley Community Church since November 2019. I have found this to be such a loving church where my family has felt right at home. I thank God for the community we have been blessed with and want to be able to reciprocate the love of Jesus to all who come through our doors.

Family: I love my family! I have been married to Orlando since August 2001 and God has blessed us with three precious girls along the way: Abigail, Keilah and Roxana. We enjoy family meals, traveling, road trips and hiking. We also enjoy spending time with people!

Work: I was hired on to be the Director of Engagement and Connections in July of 2022. I am super excited to work alongside staff to get everyone plugged into a discipleship vehicle. My goal is to get to know each one of you! I figure, if we are saved, we’ll get to know each other in heaven but let’s start on this side of heaven!

Education: I earned my Bachelors of Science in Child Development as well as a Master’s in Education at Cal State Fullerton. I was a classroom teacher for many years and then the Lord called me to full time mommy ministry, which I thoroughly enjoyed. When my kids were of age to go to school, they went to a public charter school. After the school shut down, the Lord led us to begin our homeschooling journey. Homeschooling has its ups and downs but knowing that we are doing the will of God, we take it one day at a time.

Growing up: I was born in El Salvador but have been raised in California since the age of 2. The Lord called our family to himself in the early to mid 80’s. I have seen the power of our Mighty God work in and through our family as he saved us and restored our broken home. I am confident that God is still in the business of miracles and wants to work in your life too!

I was born and raised in the Philippines. After completing my college education in Business Management at Silliman University I came to California where I met my husband, Steve. We have been married since 1996 and have been blessed with two sons, Christian and Matthew. I joined the CVCC staff in 2005 and continue to serve as a part-time administrative assistant. Spending time in God’s word, reading, dancing, & family hikes are some of the things I enjoy doing. My grandmother’s legacy is to love God first, and the unconditional love for family. Her daily life was a strong testimony of her unwavering faith & deep love for God and I strive to keep that alive in my life. We have a big family, we treasure our time spent together for every, and any, occasion and love one another for who we are. So I consider it a blessing to be a part of another big, loving family that is CVCC. A family that is my privilege love & serve.

Hi everyone, my name is Jenny Lyn. I moved to Chino Hills in 2015 and started attending CVCC since the summer of 2017. I accepted Christ into my heart in high school and was baptized during college time. I attended Urbana in 2000. I have been married to my husband Kenneth since 2005 and have two beautiful girls, Stephanie and Amanda. Life has not been easy and has thrown a lot of curve balls; each and every time I had to lean more on God. Although not everything went smoothly all of the time, this has made me stronger and more reliant on the Holy Spirit to guide me.

I studied Liberal studies at Cal State Northridge and what got me started in the finance world was working part-time in a CPA firm. Ever since, I excelled and got more interested in numbers. Besides numbers, I like spending time with my family and friends, organizing and planning activities especially vacations within the last 3 years. I have picked up running as a hobby and challenge. I speak fluent Spanish as I was raised in Panama.

God has been orchestrating every part of my life from how I came to this country and placed His servants into my life and led me to Christ. He also led me to my husband, and how I dealt with the unexpected death of my father in 2009 and how God led me to CVCC and to this position. God’s blueprint has been there every step of the way.

My family and I started attending CVCC in 2010. I immediately fell in love and became a faithful volunteer in Early Childhood Ministry. I looooved working with the little’s and it melted my heart when they didn’t want to leave at the end of class. I was hooked!

In October 2019, I had the privilege to become part of staff as the EC Coordinator. I know it’s an honor to serve the Lord as a leader over Early Childhood Ministry. My goal is to partner with parents in helping your little understand how much Jesus loves them.

I enjoy spending lots of time with my family and friends. I love sunny breezy days, road trips, delicious food and planning a party.

My favorite person in the entire world is my niece, Mia. My very old dog Milo faithfully fulfills his life purpose as my cuddle bug.

I have grown up at CVCC my whole life, but was recently hired as the 5th and 6th grade director in March of 2020. I am a graduate from Biola University and am currently a student at Rosemead School of Psychology. I am passionate about the gospel and what the saving grace of Jesus means for all who believe in God. I believe that the 5th and 6th grade years are formative to a person’s worldview and faith, and I am dedicated to ensuring these students grow in love and in their foundation with Jesus Christ.

I was born into a Christian home and raised with God-fearing parents and a dad who was a bi-vocational pastor. I grew up with a personal relationship with God having accepted the gift of salvation at the early age of 4. God has led me through some difficult seasons but has always proven His faithfulness. I moved into Chino Hills back in 2007 and met my future bride Alex not too long after here at CVCC! In His sovereign timing God has given us a precious little girl named Olivia. I am now also in a bi-vocational ministry like my dad. God has led me to lead the Jr. high ministry after 7 years in the high school ministry. Alex and I also own a home inspection company that we love seeing how God uses for His glory.

My passion is to study the Bible and share what I’ve learned with others around me. I’ve seen the power and reality of God and witnessed transformation through submission to Him and His Gospel. My hope is for the people in my life to catch a glimpse of it as well, so that they too will be transformed into lovers of God and lovers of people, with joy, peace, and faith.

I was saved when I was 22 on June 19th 2017, after witnessing the power and glory of God’s grace in my life through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ as presented in the Holy Bible. I had recently graduated from SMU with a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science. I had also recently been hired as Assistant Operating Manager of C2C Industries, where I continue to work with my family in the metal manufacturing industry.

I was married to my lovely wife, Alexa, when I was 24 on March 21st 2020. She is my best friend and the love of my life. Together, we seek to grow closer in relationship to God and to each other. God has truly blessed me an amazing woman, who I’m honored to call my wife.

I’m thankful for the many brothers and sisters in Christ in my life, who have encouraged and strengthened my faith.

I’m thankful for Chino Valley Community Church, who has given me this opportunity to walk alongside college-aged students as I seek to encourage and strengthen their faith and passion to pursue Christ.

I am pleased to be serving Chino Valley Community Church as the Women’s Ministries Director! I have been involved in our Women’s Ministry for over 30 years in a variety of ways. I desire to see women find their identity and value in Christ, through mentoring relationships, Bible Study and community with other believers. I believe the Gospel has the power to change us!

There were a number of years that I served as Children’s Director here at CVCC. I loved those kids and making sure they knew Jesus. I just “retired” in the last couple of years from worship teams-those years were some of the best times of my life!

I’ve been married to my husband Mike since July 1979. Together we served in the youth programs for high school. We took them several times on mission trips to Mexico. Missions are one of my heart beats. I’ve been able to go to not only Mexico, but Costa Rica, Canada and Hungary with our church.

Mike and I have two adult daughters, Rochelle and Brenda, who are both married to terrific men and both have 2 children.

Greekings!

It is a joy to walk alongside my fellow young adults as we seek to live lives fully devoted to the Gospel mission. Born and raised in southern California, my wife Victoria and I currently live in Costa Mesa, California. I am an outdoor enthusiast, a food connoisseur, and a baseball fanatic. Some might also say I play a mean game of ping pong.

Hi Everyone! I joined the CVCC Team in 2022 and I’m so excited to be here serving as the Family Ministry Pastor. I’m a California native and was born in Orange County and then moved to Fallbrook when I was in junior high. I graduated from Fallbrook Union High School and went to school for architecture upon graduation. I have been married to my beautiful wife, Joy, since 1997, she is the love of my life! I have an incredible son, Isaiah, who amazes me every day! I love to create and design just about anything. I received my BA in Pastoral Studies from San Diego Christian College and my MDIV from Bethel Theological Seminary.

My passion is to equip and shepherd all generations to pursue the purpose that Christ has for them. I have a calling to encourage, educate and enlighten families in their walk with Christ, deepen their understanding of a Biblical world view, foster growth in a Christian community, and to see the Great Commission lived out. My heart is to see families succeed and see them grow together in Christ! I want to build a “Sticky Faith!” As we build a faith that sticks together, we will see growth together, as we love and disciple each other in our walk with Christ. My prayer is that we surround our kids with adults and friends that point them to Jesus!”

I love spending time with my family, traveling, and anything and everything at the beach! My favorite food is Mexican food and Mediterranean food! I look forward to getting to know you and your family soon!

I’ve been on staff here at CVCC since March 2017. I was a theater major at UCLA and earned an M.Div. and Th.M. in theology at Talbot School of Theology. I’ve been married to Michelle since 1987 and we have 3 grown children: Brittany, Jeremiah, and Joseph. My passions include diving deeply into God’s Word, telling others about my Messiah, and helping people grow in their faith and see that there is so much more God has for them. I love the outdoors and spending time reading and hanging out with my family.

Hello everyone! My name is Victor Wang and it is my privilege to serve you as the executive administrator of CVCC.  My wife Denise and I came to CVCC in 2002 and have been members for the last 18 years.
