Our Staff // Calvary Chapel Living Hope
Serving The Church, Loving The Lost.
At Living Hope, our staff is dedicated to serving the needs of the body of Christ, while also caring for and pursuing the lost. We come from diverse backgrounds, cultures, life experiences, and professions. But what unifies us is our desire to see Jesus high and lifted up as His word goes out with grace and truth. We serve the community locally and personally, and the world passionately and faithfully. Through prayer, personal and close relationships, and in fidelity to the word of God, our desire is to see everyone, including our staff, grow in the grace and knowledge of Jesus.

Paul Paopao
Paul Paopao came to Calvary Chapel Living Hope on a Wednesday night in 2002 where he received the saving grace of Jesus Christ and was “born again”.

Ever since Paul has served in nearly every capacity within in the church and currently is part of the leadership team as one of the Assistant Pastors. With Living Hope in the heart of Oceanside Paul’s passion is to share the gospel of Jesus Christ throughout the community ministering in the grace of the “new covenant” of Jesus Christ (2 Corinthians 3:5,6). Married to his wonderful wife Diana for over 20 years and together they are blessed with 6 children.
