Senior Pastor: Boyd D. Brooks

Boyd and Marilyn grew up in the San Joaquin Valley of California. In 1976 Boyd and Marilyn came to serve as Youth Pastors at People's Church. Later, the Lord directed them to missions where they served 23 years as missionaries with the Assemblies of God to Argentina and Puerto Rico. They were involved in church planting and served as directors of a Bible School in Cordoba Argentina. Their years in Argentina gave the Brooks an enormous appreciation for Latin culture, and they feel their lives have been forever enriched from those experiences. In 2000 they became the pastors of People's Church.
They have three grown children, one daughter, two sons, and seven grandchildren. Family is an important priority to Boyd and Marilyn, and they take immense pleasure in this great gift God has given to them. Having been missionaries for so many years of their lives, the Brooks have a missionary heart, so it is no wonder the church supports over one hundred missionaries around the world. They continue to have great interest in Argentina and are invested in helping to plant churches and train pastors in this very special place. The Brooks have a passion to see people love Jesus and live the authentic Christian life. They believe that the genuine Christian has an irresistible testimony. Boyd and Marilyn and their family are committed to supporting marriage and the family through their example and their ministry.

Boyd has a passion to help families through a variety of ministries. One of the ways he does that is through his counseling ministry. Boyd has a master's degree in theology and leadership, a second master's in counseling, and doctorate in psychology. God has given him experience and the tools to work with families who want to improve their relationships. He enjoys seeing marriages strengthened and working with families with parenting challenges.
