Pastor John joined the Mount Olive Staff in January of 2011 to serve until the new pastor arrives.

Kat Sievert is a born and raised Southern California beach girl who loves the outdoors and sports, especially the Padres. Kat's passion for junior high and high school youth came out through a traveling summer program where she had the opportunity to meet and serve at various churches throughout California. During that summer Kat came across a bible verse which says, "For you are God's workmanship created in Christ Jesus, to do good works with God prepared in advance for you to do." (Ephesians 2:10) This verse helped her to see how important she is to Christ and what He can do through her. Kat wants to create a safe environment where we can build relationships and where our youth can learn about Christ and who they are in Christ.
