our staff

I'm Theo, and I joined the team at Hilmar Covenant Church as the youth pastor in July of 2017. I've been a serving in vocational youth ministry ever since I graduated from Multnomah Bible College in Portland, Oregon back in 2003.

 

I married my wife Kyndria two weeks after graduating from Bible College. I have two youth group aged daughters, Parker and Gianna. My wife and kids are easily my most favorite people in the world.

 

In my spare time, I love basketball, photography, eating at adventurous places, and Star Wars. I am also currently enrolled at North Park Theological Seminary, working on my Masters degree in Christian Ministry.

Hi, my name is Ashley. I was raised at Hilmar Covenant and I am beyond happy and blessed to be a part of the staff. I am currently attending The Masters College and I am majoring in Christian Ministry. I hope to continue pursuing a career in children's ministry or to expand into youth ministry. I love working with kids because of the innocence they bring to stories we have heard all of our lives. They provide a whole new outlook and it is something that I love because I can learn from them. I am so thankful for the opportunity to work with kids and this amazing staff

I am Megan, and I after growing up here at Hilmar Covenant and being involved in various ministries, I am now officially on staff as Nursery and Preschool Coordinator. I plan out curriculum for our youngest members and coordinate our volunteers for this age group.

I married my husband Brandon in February of 2013 and we have two little girls: Chloe, who is in kindergarten, and Lexi, who is 2 years old. In my spare time (what's that?) I enjoy reading, watching TV, and going to Disneyland as often as possible

Leslie Oliveira

Hilmar Christian Children's Center Director

loliveira@hilmarcovenant.org

I'm a long time resident of Hilmar. I retired from TID (Turlock Irrigation District) after 40+ years of service. I'm married to Cindy and have one son. I'm glad to be a part of the staff at Hilmar Covenant Church. I enjoy fixing things and discovering how they work. Retired life has enabled me to do what I want to do which includes working at HCC and also volunteering at the Hilmar food bank. Working at HCC not only keeps me busy but allows me to be a part of the ministry of the church.

Facilities Maintenance Technician

My name is Miss Leslie and I am absolutely blessed to hold the position of Director at Hilmar Christian Children's Center. I have been in the child development field for over 27 years and am still amazed by children every day. I grew up in the bay area and moved to the valley in the 1990's. I've always been a country girl at heart. I have raised my family in Hilmar for the last 16 years. All three of my children attended HCCC and I also taught here many years ago. I am excited to be back and to be given the opportunity to provide quality care for our children while teaching them about God's amazing love.
