Efrain was born in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and raised in the Bronx, NY. His wife Megan was born and raised in Pennsylvania. The two met in college, where they both gave their lives to the Lord.

Efrain has over 17 years of ministry experience. He has served the past 11 years in a state that he loves dearly...Texas! Efrain and his family made the transition from Pennsylvania where he served as a College Minister through Jersey Shore Church of God to Kilgore, Texas in 2011. Efrain served as the Senior Pastor at Crosspointe Church in Kilgore for 8 years.

In 2019, God called both Efrain and Megan to Conroe, Texas to plant a gospel-centered, multiplying church. Through partnerships with Houston Church Planting Network, Stadia, Texas Ministries of the Church of God, and other partnering churches, the church was planted with over 400 people in attendance on launch Sunday. Efrain has a passion to equip the local church and see it thrive.

Efrain served several years on the Texas Board of Ministry Executive Team. He is currently the Vice-Chairman of the General Assembly of the Church of God, Anderson. Efrain also serves as the Lead Pastor of Ministry & Multiplication at Wake Church in Conroe, Texas.

Efrain and Megan currently live in Conroe, Texas with their three children Grace, Josiah, and Anna.

David Kufeldt

Administrative Services Manager

A Bible professor once said, "You don't have to go into full-time Christian ministry to serve the Lord with all of your heart, soul, mind and strength.  Go, be salt and light in business; show the business world what Christ looks like."  David took those words to heart as his calling.

 

David spent his working years in retail, manufacturing and distribution; as an accountant, financial controller, IT manager, and as a financial analysis manager.  David is now retired, but stays active providing database support and analysis to Wake Church, a new church plant in Conroe, TX.

 

David is a graduate of Anderson University (BA) and Ball State University (MBA).  He is married to Brenda, who is a registered nurse, and they have two adult sons, Jarad and Adam, and one grandchild.
