  • Susie Soh

    Worship Arts and Communications Coordinator

    Susie studied Communications, Psychology and later Advertising but she credits her knack to plan, organize and strategize to the game of Tetris. Working behind the scenes as producer to coordinate with various teams can fit like a neat puzzle or turn into quiet chaos, but figuring out how to make it work is half the fun. This introvert doesn’t have much time for hobbies except for Netflix and trying to finish that book she borrowed from the library 3 months ago.

  • Molly Montgomery

    Justice and Missions Coordinator

    Born and raised in Taiwan, Molly has always been passionate about social issues and seeking ways to make a difference. With a background in elementary school education, Molly joined GrX KidZone staff in 2019. Then in 2025 she transitioned to Justice and Missions. On a typical Sunday, you can see Molly volunteering at KidZone, or chatting with the youth, or sharing her latest experience in local missions. Molly enjoys the outdoors as well as a good cup of coffee and a good book!

  • terrence Wu

    Director of Operations

    Terrence wears many hats at church—though he’d probably prefer a Mickey Mouse one! He loves working with kids and youth, building relationships through fun, memorable experiences. He also keeps the church’s finances and operations on track. When he’s not crunching numbers or hanging with students, you’ll find him watching movies, loving all things Disney, or geeking out over geek pop culture.

  • hideyo satake

    Children and Young Families Ministry Director

    Hideyo was born and raised in the Bay Area. He graduated from UC Berkeley and Fuller Seminary. He has worked in ministry for over 25 years as a missionary, pastor, church planter and now as a director of children's ministry. He was also a stay-at-home dad to his three kids for over 10 years. He enjoys making tiki drinks for his wife of over 20 years, Alinna, cheering on his kids, and finding places to eat.

  • Jean Tang

    Early Childhood Coordinator

    Since 2024, Jean has led fun Sunday lessons for our youngest church members. Drawing on her design background and life as a mom of two, she loves bringing Bible stories to life through crafts and hands-on activities. When she’s not at church, you’ll find her decorating cakes, crafting with her kids, or heading outdoors for a family adventure—a love that began while growing up in beautiful New Zealand.
