Marshall Masser

Lead Preaching Pastor

Lakeside has been my home for the last 17 years and Lakeside Christian Church has been my home church all those years too.  My wife Claudia and I have been thankful to raise our two daughters in this warm and welcoming community.  I love to preach God’s Word and I love to enjoy life.  It would be an honor for me to share both of those with anyone.

Krystelle Carey

Office Manager

I grew up in Saint Charles, Missouri. After being confirmed into the Catholic church, I got invited to a Baptist youth group (very different! ha!) and experienced a different side of God than I had ever seen before. I started going to summer church camps and there made the decision to start following Jesus. I went to Ozark Christian College in Joplin, Mo and graduated with a Bachelors in Psychology and Counseling. I am passionate about hospitality, biblical literacy for women, coffee, baked goods, and being outside whether at the beach or in the mountains! I am married to Patrick, and together we have three amazing high energy boys! I never thought we would EVER live in California, and am enjoying the crazy adventures that result when you say Yes to God!

Patrick Carey

Associate Minister (Students/Discipleship)

I grew up in Rolla, Missouri and became a Christian the summer before my freshman year of high school. After going to school at Ozark Christian College in Joplin, Mo and serving at a church in Carthage, Mo, Krystelle and I got married and moved to Havre, Mt. We were part of the ministries there for 9 years and had 3 boys in that time. Now God has called us to come alongside what He is doing here in Lakeside and I couldn't be more excited to be a part of what the Spirit is doing here!

Gina Thomas

Children's Director

I'm originally from Massachusetts and moved to San Diego for military service in 2018. I have two toddlers, Rosie and Andrew and they have loved every minute since we arrived at LCC. I have experienced working in youth ministry groups before becoming part of the family here at our Lakeside Christian Church. I love walking with children as they learn to identify themselves in Christ and grow in their relationship with our Father. The youth pastors I had as a child helped shape me, and they are all still very dear to my heart. With that in mind, I am so thankful to be given the opportunity to be a faithful and loving role model for our children.
