When I grow up, I wanna to be a pastor... cuz you only work 1 day a week and you get to talk to God!

Pastor Shawn has called Yarnell Assembly of God his home church since 2012 and has been the Senior Pastor since 2016. Originally from California, he grew up in the Pacific Northwest then spent time as an adult in New Jersey and Asia. He came to know the Lord at age 9 and felt a call on his life to preach shortly after. From missionary trips to China and teaching and preaching, he loves to share Jesus with others. If he was ever stranded on an island and had to choose one book of the bible to take, Pastor Shawn states the book of Romans would be his book of choice. He and Kathy have been married 17 years and have a son and daughter. In his spare time he likes to ride ATV’s with his family and watch football especially if the Dallas Cowboys are playing.
