About Us
Jon: I grew up in San Diego. It's my home. After working in the Environmental Consulting field, I along with Ammie, joined the staff of Cru in 1999. We ministered in Santa Barbara and later gave leadership to global missions for a decade, which later took us to Dublin, Ireland for a couple of years. I enjoy creating transformative experiences for others, connecting people for strategic impact, and diving into the process of spiritual formation.
Ammie: I'm from Lakewood, CA and grew up in the same house until I left home to attend UC Santa Barbara, where I met Jon. I enjoyed three years of teaching before joining Cru. I've always had a heart for helping people, but God's vision for me was much greater than I had imagined. I enjoy shepherding women in their walks with God and coaching young leaders. I also love being a mom to our three kids-they make life such an adventure!
Gavin: I'm 18 years old. I'm a people person and I like to be the life of the party. I enjoy surfing, being with friends, playing guitar and photography.
Braden: I'm 16 years old and I enjoy playing the bass and drums. I'm pretty good at chess and actually enjoy science. I'm also playing volleyball which is really fun.
Teagan: I'm 12 years old and love to be creative through drawing or making crafts. I also enjoy singing, playing piano and always keep up with whatever my brothers are doing.
