Our Pastor
Pastor Felipe Ferreira and Family
Lead Pastor
Pastor Felipe Ferreira was called to pastor Trinity Church in November 2021. Previously he served as lead pastor and co-pastor at One Hope Community Church of the Nazarene in Columbus, OH for 9 years. He also serves as Portuguese interpreter and translator for the Nazarene Global Ministry Center. A native of Brazil, he now calls Los Angeles home and is excited to live and serve in a very diverse urban context. Felipe has attended Mount Vernon University where he received His B.A in Intercultural Studies and M.Min in Practical Theology. He is currently studying at Fuller Theological Seminary.
This is what pastor Felipe shares about his calling at this moment:
“At this point in my Christian journey I see myself extending Jesus’ love and life into new cultures and contexts as well as helping to keep the church faithful to God and serving in the world. My favorite part of ministry here at Trinity, besides preaching and teaching, is meeting one-on-one with our team of staff and investing in their spiritual formation and vocational development. I am looking forward to meeting each one of you and partnering together so we can advance the Kingdom of God in the communities of Rowland Heights and Monterey Park.

Felipe is married to Érika, a nutritionist by training, Sunday school teacher, and worship leader. They have two boys, Jonathan (03/08/18) and Joseph (09/26/20).
