Shady Francis - Assistant Pastor

A little about Pastor Shady:

Email: [email protected]

Family: Isabelle, my bride, is the most AMAZING person and we have two sweet and fun children in Nathan and Michelle.

Hometown: I was born in Cairo, Egypt but was raised in Fountain Valley

Refuge became part of my family… in 2011.

I became a Christian... after being a poker player and living for worldly pleasures. One day as I was driving to the casino, the Lord used Kwave to grab a hold of my heart. I knew He was there, in that car, with me and that He loved me and that changed everything.

What is a random task that you do at Refuge that not many people know about? Wearing T-shirts that remind everyone that bacon is proof of Jesus.
