A note from Greg and Alicia:
We love talking to people about Jesus, praying for people, sharing God's love in practical ways and seeing God's Kingdom active on earth. We started off at the Vineyard in Cañon City 17 years ago when Kirk Yamaguchi was the pastor and began an incredible discipleship journey of growth through the years. We had no intention of being pastors. We just love Jesus and are trying to serve Him with all our hearts. Our sending church is Vineyard Cañon City and if you are looking for a church home, we highly recommend them!
We are from the big city of Denver - born and raised. We love authentic Mexican tacos, summertime recreation, and chocolate. (that's Alicia). We have 3 kids, Amanda, David and Anna Grace. We once spent 2 years on missions in Mexico.
We never thought we'd be back in Cañon City after our time in Mexico, but God specifically called us back to serve the community here. And we are so thankful to call Cañon City our home!
