Pastor Appreciation

We love our pastors here at East Valley Foursquare Church!  It's hard to get them all in one place together, but in the picture above, you can see we managed!  This was from our 2009 Pastor Appreciation Day, where we got to show them just how much we love them!  Check out our pastors' biographies below!

Mary Jo Kraft - Children's Pastor

Pastor Mary Jo is on fire for children’s ministry!  She embraces God’s vision with dynamic creativity for all the babies and children in EVFC’s Faith Kidz program.  Her love for God shows in her work and lifestyle.  She loves worshipping God, seeing kids receiving Jesus in their heart, playing her guitar, and playing with her puppy, Izzy.  When she is not in the Faith Dome, she flies Chinook helicopters (yes-she is a pilot!) with the Army National Guard.  She also enjoys hanging with friends or spending time outdoors.
