Commander
J.C. Escobar
JC, along with his wife and two children, has attended Temple Baptist Church since 2013. Along with his duties as AWANA Commander, he also serves as a Deacon for the church. He enjoys working with the children in AWANA “and seeing the joy of the kids during club night, not to mention that we are helping them to learn God’s Word.” His favorite verse is John 15:1, “Because Jesus is the True Vine.” In his free time you might find him coaching his children’s soccer team…or even playing soccer himself to try and stay in shape!
