David Jump serves as Pastor for Worship and Missions. David is a native Visalian. He came to Christ at the age of nineteen. Soon after he joined the staff of Christian Service Corps in Washington, DC, one of the first short term mission agencies. From there he went on to earn his BA degree in Biblical Studies from Columbia International University in Columbia, S.C. After graduation in 1982 he relocated to Visalia and became involved in the ministries of Visalia Evangelical Free Church. As the church grew he was invited in 1999 to join the staff to help in the areas of worship and missions. He now directs our worship teams and is responsible for the 426 planning of our worship services. He has also written many of the songs that are sung by our congregation. He also oversees the mission’s ministry of our church. Pastor David also helps out in the areas of teaching and counseling.

He is married to Debbie who is a gifted Bible teacher. They have three daughters.
