Who We Are

Leadership


Doug Kyle

Lead Pastor

I love God and God's people and am passionate about the clear and relevant teaching of the Bible as it applies to real life. I hope what you hear on Sunday helps you live Monday through Saturday. While pursuing my doctorate, I focused on SHAPE-based ministry. This training has deepened my commitment to helping people find God's unique call for their lives and grow in areas of greater influence. I enjoy basketball, vintage VW buses, and loose-leaf teas. And I'm still goofy-in-love with my wife and incurably proud of my kids.

Geoff Horn

Associate Pastor

Hi. I am Geoff Horn and I am an associate pastor at Green Valley Church. I lead the High School Ministry, oversee and teach GVCU classes, and sometimes fill in for Doug (preaching) or David (worship leading). I am married to an awesome woman, Holly, and I have three boys, Jackson, Will and Samuel. December 1998 was a good month for me; I started working at GVC and got married two weeks later. I love sports, video games, random humor, stupid movies, hanging out with my family, traveling, playing guitar and learning. I love people (especially young people) and I love watching people grow in their relationship with Jesus.

Nicole Griesi

Children's Co-Director

I love serving at GVC because it combines my love of God with working with children. My husband, Ken, and I moved to San Diego in 2007 and were delighted when we found GVC. We have two boys, Nicholas & Caleb, and a third child on the way! During our off time (when the kids are with Nana & Papa) Ken and I love to go adventuring through America's National Parks. It amazes me to see spectacularly beautiful places only God can take credit for creating. I also enjoy being creative, reading, and competitive running and triathlon.
