James Prendergast
Director of Student Ministries
James Prendergast is the Director of Student Ministries. Growing up in the South Bay of Los Angeles, James loves the beach, mornings on a surfboard, and most of all, the Los Angeles Dodgers. In 2020, James married his high school sweet-heart McKenna and moved up to Kingsburg. Being saved as a junior high student, James has a great passion to see young people be transformed by Jesus Christ as they encounter Him on the pages of scripture. His life verse is Galatians 2:20, “I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” James is currently pursuing his Masters of Divinity through the TMS distance location run out of Grace Church of the Valley. James and McKenna have one beautiful daughter, Blakely, who was born in the fall of 2022.
