Penngrove Community Church - Update 2

Roger Hoffman
Penngrove Community Church called a new pastor, Rev. Roger Hoffman.

Roger graduated from Golden Gate Seminary in the 1976 with a Masters of Divinity.  While attending seminary in 1972 he was a co-founding pastor of Church of the Open Door in Mill Valley, California (which later moved to San Rafael.)

In 1979, Roger and his wife Eva, became missionaries to England.  They soon founded Open Door Community Church in Bromley, England, a suburb of London.  That church eventually grew to around 300 members.

In 1986, they turned over the leadership of that church to the team they had raised up, and returned to the United States.  Soon after his return, Roger became pastor of Church of the Open Door in San Francisco, California.

In 1997, Roger joined the pastoral staff of New Life Christian Centre in London, England.

Roger and Eva returned to the United States in 2002 to care for Roger's parents in Texas.  Their health had been deteriorating.  They spent a year with them.

Roger spent the next several years preaching in various churches as called upon as well as going on mission trips to Russia, Africa, and Malta.

Roger and Eva are excited about his call to pastor Penngrove Community Church, and the church is excited about having Pastor Roger there as well.
