Vaughn Park

Senior Pastor & Elder
Vaughn is a native of Grand Junction.  Raised in a believing home, he  embraced Jesus in faith as a disciple while a teen.  Vaughn and his wife Ronda were married in 1989 and moved the following year to Southern California for Vaughn to attend The Master's Seminary.  The Lord blessed them with a daughter, Vanessa, in 1991 and they returned to Grand Junction, where he started a business with a friend. In 1998, their son Josiah was born.  Then, in 1999, the family returned to Los Angeles, where Vaughn graduated from TMS in 2000 with a Master of Divinity degree.  Soon after, he began serving as Pastor at Ogden Valley Community Church in Huntsville, UT.  In 2002, God blessed Vaughn and Ronda again with a son, Jedidiah.
In 2005, Vaughn returned to Grand Junction to serve as Senior Pastor of Heritage Church.   After ten years at HC, the family moved to Southern California, where Vaughn served as Senior Pastor at Santa Clarita Baptist Church.  Then, in His good providence, God called Vaughn back to Grand Junction  in 2020 to again serve as Senior Pastor for Heritage Church.   He  loves being back in Western Colorado where he can enjoy the mountains and serving Christ alongside longtime friends.
