John & Kelly Lin

I was introduced to Christianity through my best friend when he became a Christian in high school. I heard the gospel for the first time through his youth group, but was too busy enjoying high school and preparing for college to actively seek God. A year later, as a freshman at UC Berkeley, I felt the emptiness of my life without meaning and purpose. It was then I remembered that youth group experience and the effect of Jesus in their lives. In faith, I responded to that same gospel and it has made all the difference in my life since then. I joined our church and started learning the word of God, building relationships, and found meaning and purpose in serving God and loving others.

Upon graduating from college, I stuck around at our church in Berkeley and began serving in our youth ministry. Then I moved to help with our churches in Davis and Austin, and most recently, to the DMV.
