Dennis Yim
Lead Pastor
Dennis was born and raised in the Bay Area. He graduated from Westminster Theological Seminary in 2018 with his Mdiv., and was ordained in the EPC in 2019. Dennis’ desire and prayer is for Grace Ministry to be a church that allows people to explore faith and discover the implications of the Gospel for all areas of life. At the same time, he desires Grace Ministry to be Kingdom-minded: doing justice and proclaiming grace, and exulting the King in worship. Dennis enjoys spending time with his family, discovering good food, following his favorite teams (A’s, Lakers!), and enjoys nerding out.

Julie Bang
Children’s Director
Her whole life, Julie has had a love for people of all generations, but her heart always gravitated towards children to the point that her dream job since she was 5 years old was to be a pediatrician! While she didn't end up working with kids as a pediatrician, she did end up working with kids as an elementary school teacher! The love for kids doesn't stop there though. Julie firmly believes that this next generation of people have immense power and influence and her hope is that all of that influence could go into loving God, loving people, and expanding His Kingdom.
