I was born in Seoul, South Korea, and was adopted at 6 months. I grew up in New Jersey in a Christian home, and prayed a prayer of salvation at 6. I struggled growing up with identity, loss, and guilt issues, mainly due to not understanding where I came from or why I was here. I grew up in a multi-cultural environment, which I am extremely grateful for. My parents separated when I was 10-11 and I rebelled  in middle, high school and college, but am grateful for God's unending grace.

In 2014 I moved to LA and became a part of Antioch. I was drawn by the sense of family and the willingness of other guys to disciple and invest in my life. The fact that Antioch stressed racial reconciliation, adoption, multiculturalism, and grace was very important to me. I am amazed at  God's daily forgiveness and grace through His Gospel, and His faithfulness throughout my life as evident in Phil 1:6- "And I am sure of this that He who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ."

I am love being a member of Antioch as a servant leader and to work with LAUSD as an 8th grade teacher.  I am beyond blessed to be happily married to Missy (1 John 4:19) and a father to John Immanuel!

Parvati, was born in Guyana, South America to a Hindu family and grew up in Jamaica after her father moved the family there in search of a better life. When she was eleven years old, she and her two younger sisters returned to Guyana and it was during this trip that she attended church for the first time and accepted the call to receive Christ as the one true God and as her Savior. 

She has a strong passion to see women and girls come to know Christ and have their lives transformed by the good news of His gospel. She also loves writing and music. After spending time in the private sector doing Research & Development and Project Management, in 2008 she graduated from Biola University, Los Angeles with a major in Organizational Leadership.

Parvati began attending Antioch in 2011 where she has been given the privilege to grow with many godly women and serve alongside them in ministering to the community in Highland Park. Her highest hopes are to see women in the area provided the privilege of accessing sound biblical teaching and vocational training so that they may be empowered as members of the community. She is married to her best friend Braven Greenelsh and has three children, Luka (11), Zara (8), Asha (6) and Jaiah (1).

Robert was born and raised in Manila, Philippines. He moved to L.A. as a teen and became involved in a Filipino gang downtown. He continued living a defiant lifestyle, moving back and forth from L.A. to Manila. After eight years of wandering through life he moved back to L.A. to marry the love of his life Joanna. This is when God grabbed ahold of his heart. He has been following the Lord ever since studying His word, serving in the local church, and telling people about Jesus. Robert loves seeing people understand who God is and begin to follow Him. He also loves the Lakers. He met Josh in 2010 and found out that he's planting a church in his own neighborhood. He knew right away that God crossed their paths for a reason and after much prayer and deliberation, Robert & Joanna joined Antioch.

Jeannette was born and raised in Los Angeles. She comes from a Latin family that was “culturally catholic”, as she likes to call them. Her and her older sister went to a catholic elementary school and followed all of the catholic traditions, but was never introduced to God. When the family moved to the Downtown/Silverlake area of Los Angeles, the family underwent some very difficult times as they lost the baby of the family, at 3 years of age, to leukemia. This changed the course of all of their lives… however, through the years, unbeknownst to them, God kept them together, because He had a greater plan…

As she got older, Jeannette started to feel a desire for something/someone greater than herself. She believed in God but didn’t have a relationship with Him and didn’t know that she could. Her search went on for many years, she read books on other religions and beliefs and decided she was just going to be “spiritual” not “religious”. But that didn’t last for long, she found herself attending Catholic mass in the hopes of hearing or receiving what she was missing but couldn’t quite put her finger on. Sunday morning mass was the closest she was getting but it wasn’t enough. Her older sister came to the Lord first and ultimately God used their closeness and love to bring Jeannette to Him. Jeannette attended service one day at the church her sister was attending and felt like God was waiting for her, right there, in that theater building. She was saved the following Sunday!

Jeannette came to Antioch through a coworker & friend 3 years after being saved! She later found out that that friend and other members of Antioch Church had been praying for her salvation years before as well as her sister and her sister’s in-laws had been. Now she is part of the Leadership team serving as a Deacon and works full-time as a Medical Interpreter at our very own Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. God continues to work in her life and on her heart.

Missy grew up in the Philippines with a close-knit, loving, Catholic family. Despite being in church almost every Sunday, her faith was all based on tradition and her relationship with the Lord was practically non-existent.

In 2008, her family immigrated to the US to start a new life. To her dismay, in the same year her parents separated due to unforeseen events. But God in his wisdom and mercy, used something that may seem tragic to bring her to faith and knowledge of the one true God. Through her local church in the Bay Area, she grew in faith and served in their youth ministry.  

By God's grace her parents reconciled and in 2012 she decided to live with them in Los Angeles. It was difficult leaving her first church but she knew God would provide a new family of believers in LA. In the following year, God answered that prayer through Antioch City Church.  

Through the humble, wise and God-centered leadership of Antioch, Missy gained a fuller understanding of the Gospel and fell more in love with Jesus. She started working on staff for Antioch in 2015 and currently serves as Operations Director, while also as a co-founder and board member for the non-profit PAX. She lives in NELA with her loving husband Ki & sweet baby boy John.

Her prayer is to see the local church equipped with God's Word, humbled by his Spirit, using their gifts to build up one another and serve the community.
