Rev. Eric Kapur - Pastor
The stats: Eric was born in Chicago, IL but grew up in Jacksonville, Florida. His dad was born in India; his mom was raised in the midwest. After moving to Southern California right out of college to pursue his (now) wife Amelia, he went to seminary in Orlando, FL (Reformed Theological Seminary). The Kapurs have 4 boys (17, 15, 13 and 10). Before being called to Trinity, Eric spent the previous 10 years serving as Pastor of Spiritual Formation at Redeemer Presbyterian Church in San Diego.
The results: Eric loves the Chicago Cubs and college football (Go Gators!). He believes sweet tea is a culinary necessity. He loves making Indian food and hanging out with people of all backgrounds. He has too much gray hair (4 boys). He is convinced that the gospel brings wholeness and life to people. He is convinced that pursuing Jesus in a grace-filled community brings renewal to our broken places and, through broken people, Jesus redeems the world.
As the pastor of Trinity, Eric is excited to see Trinity be a church deeply rooted in the gospel and wholeheartedly committed to following Jesus into the renewal of all things.
