Our Staff

Kathleen Vaughn

I have been serving at First Lutheran Church in El Cajon, CA for 20 years in Children and Youth Ministries, and for the past two years I’ve also had the joy of working with college students. I love making connections and building relationships with people of all ages. In my free time, I enjoy reading and spending time outdoors. I look forward to talking with SDSU students about our Savior Jesus. Call or text me if you want to talk or for more info!

Pastor Paul Willweber

I have been the pastor of Prince of Peace Lutheran Church in San Diego since 1998. My wife and I have four children who are all out of college. I love being with family and friends, traveling, theology, music, reading, movies, TV, language, and sports. I am a life-long Laker fan and a die-hard Padre fan. I love talking theology and sharing the Gospel, so I am excited to connect with students of SDSU. Call or text me if you want to talk or for more info!

Pastor James Huenink

I am the pastor of First Lutheran Church of El Cajon. My wife, Kristan, and I came to San Diego from Chicago after serving as a pastor there for fourteen years. In addition to my pastoral ministry, I research Chicago Lutheran history and black Lutheran history, run a sports photography business, and am an adjunct professor at Concordia University Chicago. In my free time, I read fantasy novels, garden, and play RPG’s.
