A third generation Angeleno, Bryan Moselle joined the pastoral ministry team at University Bible church in February 2016. Bryan came to faith in Jesus Christ at a young age through conviction that the Bible he was reading was the truth.  Since 2006 he has held various ministry and managerial positions in local churches and overseas with Samaritan’s Purse International Relief. He has nearly a decade of experience working in international missions in 11 countries in Africa and was a former Lieutenant in the United States Air Force.  He met his Kenyan wife Anne while working in ministry in Nairobi, Kenya, and together they are blessed with four children: Joshua, Imani, Hannah, and Richard.  Bryan is a graduate of the University of Pretoria (Ph.D.), and Talbot School of Theology, Biola University (Th.M., M.Div.).  He loves spending time with his family, wrestling with his kids, surfing, and Tito’s Tacos.

As a WLA native, Kevin first heard the gospel and received Christ when he was 15. He graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Finance and worked in various corporate positions while often investing his spare time studying the Bible.

Kevin attended the School of Ministry at Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa and became a Pastoral Assistant. He has since volunteered in various churches as Children’s Ministry Director, Youth Director, and Evangelism and Outreach Director. He has trained evangelism teams and taught numerous Bible classes, home fellowships, and workshops for teachers at various Calvary Chapel Children’s Ministry Conferences.

He has been a part of the UBC family since 2013 and has served as an Elder, Evangelism and Missions Team Leader, and Bible Teacher. Kevin now serves as full-time Family Ministries Director and oversees the Children, Youth, and Family Programs. He is currently attending Talbot Seminary to earn his MA in Theology. He strongly believes that God has called the church to be one family that shares the love of Christ with one another.

I grew up here in Los Angeles as a native. I rededicated my life to Christ in May of 1985 after attending University Bible church with my soon-to-be husband Pat. I’ve been attending and worshiping here for all those years since. I raised my children in this church and consider the people here to be my family. I enjoy helping people, meeting new people, and feeding people. I took the job of church secretary in 2009, and have taken on many other jobs in the church since then. I enjoy serving the Lord here and plan on doing so as long as I am able!
