Our Minister
Jim Allen has been the Minister of the Encinitas Church of Christ since 1992. He has been preaching the gospel of Christ for more than 30 years. During that time he has served as a missionary to the island of Antigua, Single Adult minister for the 7th and Orange Church of Christ, Associate Minister for the Vista Church of Christ, and now serves as the Senior Minister for the Encinitas Church of Christ. Jim has been happily married to Kim (Altom) Allen for over 30 years and have 3 sons together.
Our Youth Directors
Mike Coburn and Kim Morris have been members of the Encinitas Church of Christ for many years. They both have young children and recognize the need for leadership and role models in the lives of young people today. Since our previous youth director moved away, Mike and Kim have stepped up to fill the role of leading and mentoring our young people. We’re blessed to have Mike and Kim working with us as part of our leadership team.
Our style of Leadership
While the Encinitas Church of Christ does not presently have Elders, we function quite well involving every member in the leadership of the church. When it comes to big decisions and direction of the church, the whole congregation has a say. The trust of implementing ideas and leading the church forward is given to our Minister Jim Allen and monitored by regular Congregational meetings. This has worked well for us, but we do hope to one day have qualified Elders and Deacons to pastor and serve as leaders.
