In February, we will be featuring a team of preachers from San Clemente Presbyterian Church in San Clemente, CA:

Renee Coffman-Chavez has been the Children’s Sunday School Director at SCPC since 2008. Previously, Renee served as an intern at Boulevard Presbyterian Church in Columbus, OH. Renee earned her BA in Political Science and History at Converse College, and her Master of Divinity at Princeton Theological Seminary. She is currently an Inquirer in the ordination process under the care of Los Ranchos Presbytery. Renee is married to David Chavez, who also serves at SCPC as the Director of Hispanic Ministry and Adult Discipleship. Together they have two handsome sons, Ian (5) and Rowan (2).

Rev. Dr. Tod Bolsinger has served as Senior Pastor at SCPC since 1997, having previously served ten years at First Presbyterian Church of Hollywood. Tod earned his Ph.D. in Theology and a Master of Divinity from Fuller Theological Seminary. He is author of two books (It Takes a Church to Raise a Christian and Show Time), and speaks and consults with church, organizational, and business leadership groups with TAG Consulting. Tod also teaches at Fuller Seminary and Denver Seminary. His wife, Beth, is a marriage and family counselor in private practice, and they have two teenage children, Brooks and Ali.

Rev. Charlie Campbell has been on staff at SCPC for 2000, beginning as a Parish Associate and as a Counselor in Residence, and now he serves as Pastor of Worship. Along with being a pastor and musician, he maintains a private practice as a marriage and family therapist. Charlie has been married for twenty-five plus years to Tracy, who is also a therapist in private practice, and the two of them share life with their delightful daughters, Mary and Erinn, and their big dog (Holly the Leonberger). Charlie grew up in the Bay Area, went to college in Washington, graduated from Fuller Seminary in Pasadena, and has served on the staffs of Menlo Park Presbyterian Church and Hollywood Presbyterian Church. If he isn’t working, he’s with his family, or reading, or training to move extremely slowly in some absurdly long triathlon.
