Meet the Ministry Team

 

Majors Rob & Stacy Birks
Pastors

Rob & Stacy Birks, Majors, are in their 33rd year of marriage and just began their 30th year of ministry as officers in The Salvation Army. They’ve served God & OTHERS up & down the West Coast, including Los Angeles, San Francisco, Portland & Seattle, plus a few places just off the coast; Puyallup, WA & Sacramento, CA. Their first ministry destination, however – in 1992 – was San Diego. Coming back here, nearly three decades later, was a complete surprise to them – a fantastic one! They have three adult children; Emily, Graham & Lauren, who live elsewhere. “Empty Nesters,” would fit them if it weren’t for a beautiful dog named Charlie.

Stacy enjoys hospitality & fiber arts (she’s been known to participate in Yarn Bombing - it’s a thing). Rob is into baseball, movies and vinyl records. Truth be told, he’s a bit of a music nerd. Stacy prefers the term “Rock Snob”.

The Birks are excited about preaching and sharing life and Jesus with others. They look forward to seeing what God will accomplish in and through The Salvation Army Ray & Joan Kroc Center.
