Andy Aguilar

Multicultural Pastor
Andy is from Chile and has been on the team since January 2026. He leads the multicultural ministry with passion and brings the personal experience of being an international in Jacksonville to his role. He drinks his coffee black, usually from his cousin's roaster. 

Bryson Haynes

Coming soon...
We are excited to have Bryson join the ECC team later this year as our family pastor. We will have to bring him to the dark side of coffee drinking when he gets here!

Karissa Mead

Worship Ministry Director
Karissa has been a part of ECC since March 2019. She brings with her strong leadership and an ability to empower and encourage others. Karissa is in true worship leader fashion opinionated about her coffee and varies her order, but it is always bougie.
