Jerry Haraguchi,
Interim Head of Staff
Families come in all different shapes and sizes. Our family ministry seeks to see all families strengthened, growing in faith and enfolded into the family of families that is La Habra Hills. As Director of Family Ministry, Jerry sees his role as coming alongside families to provide support, guidance and encouragement as they navigate the complicated and often crazy world of today and to provide bridges into the larger faith family of the church.
Jerry’s 30 years of ministry experience with InterVarsity Christian Fellowship and the church, along with a Masters of Theology from Fuller Seminary help him to minister to families and the family of families that is La Habra Hills. But what is probably most helpful in his role with families is his own family—his wife, Kelly and their two daughters, Ashley and Courtney. Journeying together and navigating faith and life has taught him a wealth of lessons along the way; lessons that he loves to share with others. To Jerry, there is nothing better than seeing a family learn to hold tight to Jesus and walk together through the mountaintops as well as the valleys of life together. Being able to walk alongside and connect them more deeply to Jesus and to the church is a blessing that Jerry will always cherish.
