Before Trinity, Pastor Abe served as the District Student Ministries Director for the

Assemblies of God for nearly eight years, during which he provided leadership

development for 440 churches throughout Northern California and Nevada. It was

during this season that Pastor Abe began a unique ministry called Pathway

Apprenticeship. Within five years, he was able to launch 72 graduates of Bible Colleges,

Universities, and internships into full-time ministry. Pathway has since morphed into an

educational platform based out of Trinity. Today, Pathway assists leaders with their

ministerial requirements, having now impacted all 50 states, eight countries, and over 1,000 leaders since 2019.

Pastor Abe traces his call to ministry back to a Summer Camp at the age of 12. From

that day forward, he continued to grow in ministry opportunities under the mentorship of his pastors and family. He began his pastoral ministry in October 1994, at the age of eighteen. Since then, he has held several different portfolios in the four Northern

California churches he has served, including: Youth Pastor, Music Pastor, Office

Administrator, Interim Senior Pastor, and now Senior Pastor. He has also traveled

extensively, both domestically and internationally, ministering in conferences, churches, camps, and conventions.

Pastor Abe considers it a great honor to be the 11th and youngest Pastor elected to

serve Trinity Life Center. It is through his unique ministry journey that he desires to

model the purposes of Trinity; to Love, Live, and Lead as Jesus modeled, for those in

the greater Sacramento region and beyond.
