Kyle Blake

Pastor Kyle Blake is a passionate communicator and community advocate with over 20 years of experience. He believes that everyone has value and worth, no matter who they are, where they come from, or what they have done in their past. This belief is lived out as he walks alongside, and builds relationship with, the community in which he serves. He is currently a Campus Pastor.

He has a passion for walking with formerly incarcerated and gang impacted individuals that was born out of a neighborhood Bible study that he hosted, in his home, for local gang members and their families. It was there, sitting around his dining room table, he began to realize that these men and women were not any different than him. He also realized that there was a need for a community of people in Long Beach who are willing to walk with formerly incarcerated and gang impacted individuals and help them realize they have value and worth, despite their affiliation or criminal record. As a result of this realization, he is working with some local individuals to develop a community founded on kinship and support for formerly incarcerated and gang impacted individuals, and their families. A community that seeks to empower these individuals, through trauma-informed relationships, aid them in the healing and rehabilitation process and help them realize their giftedness.

Pastor Kyle currently lives in North Long Beach with his wife and two sons.
