Cait and Cole here! We moved to Redding 6 years ago to serve as the directors of Moral Revolution and before that, we led the youth ministry at Capital Christian Center in Sacramento. We have four high-energy kids, Caleb, Connor, Cade, & Chloe, that you are guaranteed to see running around and having too much fun. This year we made the transition to become the Lead Pastors here at Risen King. It has always been a dream of ours to rebuild an existing, local church. There is so much rich history here and we are excited and thankful for the opportunity to partner with God and build on a beautiful foundation. We want to see the Church come together to be effective and thrive in every area of life. We are passionate about loving God with everything and loving people well.

Transported to Northern California by alien spacecraft in 1992, my wife and I now consider Redding to be our home base. I have maintained my deep cover as a pastor for 46 years and thus have avoided detection by the CIA and NSA. Unfortunately, I have not avoided the IRS. We greatly enjoy our interaction with the people you call ‘Church Folks.’

Now on a more serious Note - B-flat

My wife, Deb, and I have served with the Alliance since 1977 when we married. I am a city boy from Akron, Ohio and she is a dairy farm gal from Nowthen, Minnesota. We came to Redding in 1992 to serve on staff at Neighborhood Church and in 2008 joined the Risen King Ministry Team. It is our calling to help people find the abundant life promised in the Gospel and to help them grow in it. We currently focus our energies in the areas of Missions, Seniors Ministry, Care/Support Groups, and Associate Pastor. We are blessed to have our daughter and her husband, along with our three grandsons living in Redding as well. It is such a joy to be in community at Risen King seeking all that God has as we continue to grow in faith and service for His glory.

My name is Brecklyn Olof! I’m originally from Alabama but have been in Redding now for a number of years and am proud to call Redding home. I am married to the love of my life, Colin, who you will be sure to bump into if you visit! I have been part of ministry all my life and the heartbeat of who I am is getting to love people well and create a safe environment where people can find Jesus and community. That is why I am so passionate about my role as Director of Operations & Team Development at Risen King. Loving God and people well is the DNA of Risen King and I love seeing that lived out every day here!

I am originally from San Francisco and moved to far Northern California because of my love of the great outdoors. I am married to my best friend, and we are blessed to have a daughter, son-in-law, and three wonderful grandchildren living in Redding. I spent much of my career marketing California as a travel destination, and now I have the privilege of marketing Jesus, something I am enthusiastic about because my reward is in the Kingdom of Heaven. My heart for my role as Women’s Ministry Director is to encourage women to live out their spiritual gifts in a way that is honoring to God. I am passionate about encouraging connection and community between generations of women that will bring growth, healing, and transformed lives. I love Risen King because it is authentic and welcoming, and we

love well.

Hi Friends! I was born and raised in McCloud, CA. I have lived in Redding for the past 40-plus years. In 1999, I married my beautiful wife Cathy, and for 25 years we’ve never had an argument. Together we have two daughters and two sons and five grandchildren. In my 14 years at Risen King, I have been connected with the Landscaping Crew, Kings Eagles, Security, Hospitality Team, Counting Teams, Young Married Couples, Band of Brothers Men’s Bible Study groups, and a Life Group (which has been together over 25 years). Cathy and I have always felt connected and loved at Risen King; which makes it so easy for us to love on other.

I was born and raised on a small farm in Klamath Falls and moved to Orange County after college. My wife Lorelei and I came to Redding in 2004 and have been at Risen King for the past 8 years.  I believe that God has commanded men to be godly leaders, and we can’t do it alone. I have always had a passion for discipleship and for sharing the lessons He has given me through the years with other men.  In the same way, Lorelei and I have a heart for mentoring younger couples.  I am excited about the vision of Risen King and the new life God has breathed into us as a body.

Amy and I moved here from the Bay Area about 4 years ago when I got a job as senior designer of the creative team at a church here in Redding. Before moving here, we were the worship pastors at an Assemblies of God church for 8 years and I was also the young adults pastor & senior designer there. We’ve been involved in ministry for over 15 years and have been married for 12. We have two miracle baby girls, Aurora is 5 years old & Lily is 4 months old. I am passionate about seeing people engage with their calling. I love opening doors of opportunity, especially in worship, for people to walk those things out with the Lord. I love the tight knit community that is growing here at Risen King as well as the warm, welcoming vibe. I also love the passionate worship culture and rich history of Risen King.

Hey hey! I’m Sarah. Originally from Susanville, I moved to Redding in 2012, and have fallen in love with the city and the incredible people here. Kids, creativity, and healing set my soul on fire. I’ve worked with kids of all ages my whole adult life - in both ministry and educational capacities - and am deeply passionate about helping them grow and discover their unique identities in Christ. It is my deepest desire that they would grow up to be unshakable and adults who know God and hear His voice. I’m so excited to be a part of what God is doing here, and honored to help establish and build Risen Kids!

Isabella and I have been married since the summer of 2023. She is a Midwest girl from Indiana and I was born in Portugal but grew up for the most part in the UK. We both grew up in church, loving to serve in any way possible. We are both very passionate about worship. She is outgoing and very extroverted, I’m more quiet and introverted. We are so privileged to get to be the junior high youth leaders, to be able to impact this next generation is an honor. We want to see kids burning for Jesus, encountering Jesus and being world changers for Jesus.
