Hello! I’m Jen. By day, I work in a research laboratory to help develop biofuels –
actually at a company just around the corner from our church!

How I came to Lighthouse: God led me to LBC summer of 2008. I remember when I first came to Lighthouse; I attended the single life bible study on Friday nights and was so encouraged during the small group time. Everyone I met was really open to sharing about their walks with God. I could see that there were people here who genuinely loved God and people. I also learned that LBC was very committed to Bible teaching on Sunday mornings. I become a member at the end of that year!

My hobbies: photography, Hiking (and taking photos of the plants, flowers and animals on the trail).

My favorites: All kinds of sports like running, surfing, and indoor rock climbing! My favorite ice cream is Pistachio with the actual nuts mixed it. I like it because it’s sweet and salty and the pistachio adds texture. Or simply Haaggen Dazs’ Coffee ice cream. I also have a fondness for cats!! :3

Verse I want to share: Psalm 119:105 “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” I love this short and sweet verse that’s filled with truth about the Truth. The psalmist here recognizes that it’s God’s Word that he needs to guide his feet and light his path in the darkness that surrounds him. I wanted to share this verse with Lumos because as we study the Bible together this year and share life together – I pray that we would develop a deeper understanding of God and His will for our lives!

I’m excited to be on staff and to get to know the youth at LBC! Think of me as an older sister and someone that is committed to loving God and you guys!

Hi! My name is Kristen Lim and I am a junior at UCSD, currently studying applied mathematics. I was born and raised in Austin, Texas, then moved to San Diego when I was entering the 8th grade (2006) and started attending Lighthouse since then.

Hobbies: baking/eating yummy treats (my favorites being anything pumpkin or banana or cinnamon), running, playing music (flute and guitar), and spending time with friends and family.

Favorite Song: “God is God” by Steven Curtis Chapman (haha, an oldie but a goodie), which speaks of God’s bigness and holiness, and how as a human I won’t understand everything that goes on in life, but I can rest assure that God is sovereign.

A favorite Bible passage of mine is Psalm 46, which underscores that God is our refuge and strength and that we can take comfort knowing that since God is God, He will be glorified no matter how bleak the circumstances may be.

I am super excited to a part of the Lumos youth ministry here at Lighthouse, since I was saved under this ministry and grew in my love and fear of the Lord during my time there (and continue to do so after graduating). I desire and pray that God will save the souls of these youth at an early age, that they may serve Him with more vigor and passion than I did when I was their age, that God may be magnified through their lives.
