Kirsten Froelich

Administrative Assistant - Fusion / Tom

Born and raised in Burbank, I have been a Christ follower my whole life and although there have been bumps in the road, I am humbled to see God's faithfulness arise in every aspect of my life. When I'm not organizing, you'll find me hanging out with family and friends or gaming on my computer. I am an avid lover of Psalm 23, pastel colors, marvel films, iced chai tea and shows from the BBC.

Hailey Bautista

Kids Church Administrator | 3.4.5 Staff

Hailey was born, raised, and spent all of her school years in Los Angeles, California. After finishing her studies in foreign languages including French and Italian, she discovered her passion for helping people better their lives through fitness and she built a personal training career. In 2020, her life changed drastically when a childhood friend helped her find her way to Christian Assembly’s Fusion community, where she served as an intern for one year. Since then, she has found deep love for the gospel and continues to pursue her calling to serve, lead, and walk with young people in her community. In her free time, she loves exploring hiking trails in Angeles Crest, playing classical piano, and going on long walks with her pup. She also leads a Fusion life group of more than twelve young women. If Hailey is not at CA, she is probably at a local coffee shop or in the gym.

Pastor - Fusion, Community Life

Jairo Fuentes, born and raised in Los Angeles, California. Jairo grew up in the church where he discovered a calling to be a Pastor at the age of 7. In 2017, his life was forever changed when he attended a Young Adults gathering in the San Fernando Valley. It was the summer of that same year where he felt God calling him to full time ministry. Out of obedience to God, he left his accounting degree at California State University, Long Beach and transferred to Life Pacific University where he graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Ministry and Leadership in 2020.

Jairo has been faithfully serving the local church the last couple of years where he grew a passion to work with people. He is passionate about leading people to complete commitment to Jesus Christ and helping people find their people.
