Reagan Parker |
Pastoral Resident
Reagan was born and raised in Gilbert, Arizona. Growing up, he was raised in a faithful, Christian home in the context of the local church. At a young age, the Lord worked in his heart to bring him to repentance of his sins and a saving faith in Christ. From then on, God has been sanctifying him and has given him the desire to serve Him through ministry. Reagan attended The Master’s University, and there he had the privilege to learn from foundational BIble classes and grow in a Christian environment. It was at TMU that Reagan met his wife Elizabeth, and they got married in June of 2023.
Currently, Reagan serves as Pastoral Resident at First Baptist Church San Bruno. He helps lead multiple ministries, including the Youth Group, Worship Music, and Awana. Reagan is also a full-time student at the Master’s Seminary, where he is working on his Master’s of Divinity degree.
Elizabeth Parker |
Office Administrator
Elizabeth grew up in Mount Shasta, California, raised by a loving legacy of Christian parents and grandparents. Through the work of the Holy Spirit, she was brought to faith in Christ at a young age, and continues to be sanctified by Him. She has a passion for music, and has served in worship ministry since she was a teenager. The Lord provided her with the opportunity of studying Biblical Counseling at The Master’s University. She was drawn to the major because she saw a great need in her community for women who knew how to give counsel from God’s Word. During her time at TMU, she met Reagan Parker, and the Lord brought them together through their shared love of him, his church, and their desire to have a Christ-honoring family. They were married in June of 2023, and moved to San Bruno right after, to serve at FBC San Bruno. Elizabeth loves this church and is excited to see how God continues to work out His purposes here.
