Bruce Lethbridge

Reverend Bruce Lethbridge, Pastor
bruce@orcuttpres.org

Rev. Bruce Lethbridge has been Pastor of Orcutt Presbyterian Church since October 1996. He is a graduate of Westmont College and Fuller Theological Seminary. He has a deep love for teaching the Scriptures and a passion for people coming to know the living God who is revealed to us in Jesus Christ.

"The love of God has reached out to the world in the gift of Jesus. We as his disciples are committed to growing more like him in thought, word, and action. My hope is that we can all discover that the church is not primarily a place you go, but rather the person you are, as someone who has been called by God's grace into a new life, and a new community. It is my privilege and joy to lead others into this discovery."

Growing up the oldest of four girls, Sherry learned first hand how to be a leader. After receiving a degree in Early Childhood Education, she took time out to raise a family, never dreaming the plans the Lord had for her. Once Christ came into her life she never looked back. As Director of Children's Ministries, Sherry enjoys the challenging task of obtaining, training and retaining volunteers who love children and want them to develop a deep relationship with Jesus Christ. She is married and has 2 grown children and loves to cook.
Garry Grant

Garry Grant, Pastor-Pastoral Care
garry@orcuttpres.org

Garry began his staff assignment in February 2004. An Elder, he completed the required educational and presbytery criteria for a Commissioned Lay Pastor in 2003. As a CLP, Garry's primary area of responsibility is in Pastoral Care though you may see him involved in almost any aspect of the church's ministry. Garry's life is a unique example of Jeremiah 29:11, "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to give you hope and a future."

Born in Arkansas, he moved to California's Sacramento Valley in 1964. He has lived in Santa Maria for over 25 years and can't think of a better place to sojourn. His wife is Sherry and those two grown children (Brian and Tracy) are his too.

Shawn O'Brien, Youth Director
shawn@orcuttpres.org

I graduated from BIOLA University in 2005 with a Bachelor's Degree in Biblical Studies.  In 2007, I completed a Master's Degree in New Testament History and Literature from Talbot School of Theology.  In May 2008 I completed a 2 year internship under the High School Pastor at Rolling Hills Covenant Church in Rolling Hills Estates, Ca.  Prior to Rolling Hills Covenant I was an intern under the youth pastor at King's Harbor Church in Redondo Beach, Ca. It was at King's Harbor that I met my darling wife, Kenna.  I have been involved in student ministry for almost 6 years.  Kenna is a youth ministry veteran, with nearly 10 years of youth ministry experience.  There is nothing we enjoy more than seeing high school and jr. high students walking with the Lord.  In my free time I enjoy bronzing, surfing, riding my Harley, working on cars, reading, and getting into trouble.

Cindy Baeza, Secretary

God sent me to OPC and He sent me in His timing. I knew that God had a plan. I just didn't know what that plan was. I tried many different avenues, testing the waters, in search of my place. Here I am, knowing that God Himself has set me here for a season. Confident that He who began a work in my life, will complete it 'til the end.

Thank you OPC for your friendship.
