Junior High Camp Speaker - Brett Imamura
Brett currently serves as the Equipping Pastor of Refuge Church, a brand-new church plant in the Irving neighborhood of Valley Ranch. As a kid, Brett watched Jesus transform his family—beginning with his mom, whose faith grew through the simple kindness of a neighbor. Her witness eventually led Brett to trust Jesus at the age of twelve. Today Brett is a husband, father of three, and a pastor with a deep love for the local church. Before moving to Dallas-Fort Worth, he spent eight years pastoring in New York City. Having previously ministered in a city made up of many nations, he is excited to now be laboring in Valley Ranch—a neighborhood in Irving made up of many nations.
In his free time, he enjoys watching sports, pickling vegetables, discovering new restaurants with his wife Lauren, and exercising from time to time. Brett longs to see people grow into worshipers of Jesus that know and love the one true God, and who walk in His truth and grace.
