Grant Family

Brandon, Jamie, & Elyse moved from Bloomington, IL to Santee, CA in August 2012 to start the next chapter in their life - starting Auxano Christian Church!

Brandon served as the college pastor at Eastview Christian Church for the last six years in the Fuel ministry. He will be the lead pastor of the Auxano, launching in Santee (a community in SD) in September 2013.

Jamie is a loving wife, unbelievable mommy, and photographer. She will be integrally involved in the new church plant, as well as savoring the gorgeous climate with her family! She plans to continue her photography business at some point, but will take a break for a little while once moving out West.

Elyse is a joyful, soon-to-be two year old that loves animals, playing outside, and waking up bright and early! She has a smile that can make anyone smile as you can see from the picture above!

Shepherd is the newest addition to the Grant family born on November 26, 2012. He’s the first CaliBORNia baby! Shepherd enjoys snuggling with mommy, getting kisses from his big sister, and watching daddy preach sermons and act silly!
