Scott White
Hello, my name is Scott and I am one of the Pastors (Global Outreach) here at Lake Avenue Church and part of that pastoring includes Team Leadership with Warehouse Core Team and Staff Team. I am married to Nancy and we got a couple of boys to round out the home team. Pasadena really is home, having spent 40+ years living in the area. What gets me up in the morning and plugged in to this kind of life focus, is helping people who have discovered Jesus, learn to follow him and not with easy answers or three easy lessons but honestly working it out. I spent 20 years running my own company before becoming a pastor full-time. I read way too much and bleed Bruin and Dodger Blue, which for the last few years has felt more like punishment than pleasure!

the ways God will be present and active in these children
Lena Garcia
Hi, my name is Lena and I am the Warehouse Assistant. First off, I am a
midwestern girl. I grew up in Milwaukee, WI where my family still lives. I
decided that I wanted to go to an ABW school (anywhere but Wisconsin) :) and
traveled to upstate New York to study at Ithaca College. There I studied
Technical Theatre and minored in Art History. From there I moved to southern
California first living in Glendora, then Fullerton and now Pasadena. Jon (my
Husband) and I have attended Warehouse since January of 2007. We have really enjoyed
becoming a part of this community. In addition to working at LAC, I also am a
set designer, props fabricator and puppeteer.
