Gabe Ahn
Pastor
Pastor Gabe has the honor of being leading the college and young adults at Harvest Rock Church called Remnant. With the core value "To love Jesus and to love like Jesus,"Remnant seeks to take that Love to every sphere of society; to be His mouthpiece to a generation longing for truth and justice. It is their mandate to relate to the world around them, aiming for excellence in all that they do, without compromising their foundation in Him.
Saved at the age of three, this destiny to impact culture and see the nations changed has always been a part of Pastor Gabe’s life. In fact, he has a background in acting and modeling, including a cumulative of 6 years of training (APU, American Academy of Dramatic Arts, Howard Fine Acting Studio, and Christina Chauncey). Along with pastoring, his dream is to use acting, writing, directing, and producing to see Hollywood and the Entertainment Industry transformed. He believes—as we teach at our church—that He’s called to take dominion over both the "Mountain of Religion"and the "Mountains of Media and Arts and Entertainment."
Part of his current responsibilities at Remnant includes leading their Revival Prayer Meeting once a week, a cell group on Tuesday nights, and worship at HRC on a regular basis. He also has the privilege of preaching from time to time. But one of his favorite things to do is to disciple, raise up, and empower other leaders to take their rightful place in the Kingdom. |

Steven & Katherena Higashi
Associate Pastors
Steven & Katherena Higashi have been part of Harvest Rock Church since its beginning in April 1994. Since then, they have served in various capacities within the church and now have the privilege of being Associate Pastors over the Youth and Young Adult ministries. They also minister in the marketplace as businesses owners in the architecture and construction industries.
The Higashis were greatly impacted by renewal in November 1994, which led to an acceleration in their giftings, particularly in the areas of prophetic intercession and prophetic ministry.
As marketplace ministers, their main passion is to see the upcoming generations raised up as leaders taking their place to transform the society around them. They believe that they have a God-ordained mandate to thrust young people forward into the purposes of God through power encounters with the Holy Spirit and biblical and practical life-skills training; all founded on intimacy with God through worship and intercession.
Residing in Pasadena with their two beautiful daughters, Hadassah Love and Destiny Glory, the Higashis are contending for the promises of God to Harvest Rock Church of revival that will transform the nations. |
