What is the mission for WYJHIGH: We believe our mission/focus is always growing as we adapt to new generations and the struggles that come with them. That being said, our mission never changes, only our tactics do. Here is what we believe and
We believe that Jesus is fully God and fully man. He was sent by God the Father to come to be born and live first as a living sacrifice and example and ultimately to die on the cross in our place to pay the price that we couldn’t afford.
We believe that Jesus is the Savior of humanity and that through His death and resurrection that we can have our sins forgiven, have a relationship with Him and have our names written in the Book of Life if we confess our sins to Him and receive the forgiveness of sins.
We believe that changed lives, change lives. And that is why we have a team of leaders whose desire is take this truth of Jesus’ sacrifice that changed our lives and share it with students in the hope that it will change theirs.
We want to point student’s to Christ, and do so by the teaching of God’s word in every service and by the example set by our leadership team of lives surrendered to Jesus.
We desire to follow the great commission given to us in Matthew 28:19 “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” As a result of that desire, we seek to create an environment of discipleship. We don’t want to “shove God” in anyone’s face and feel like we did our part. We want to see our students draw close to the Lord and desire to live as He called us to. We believe that happens as we invest in discipleship.
Meet our Junior High Pastor
My name is Lincoln Cieply! I have been married to my bride, Camila, since 2018. We have two sons! My wife grew up in Yucaipa, and Wildwood Calvary Chapel was her home church. On the other hand, I am originally from Georgia, where I have spent the past five years serving as a youth pastor at a local calvary. In May of 2022, the Lord began to work in mine and my wife’s hearts, increasing our desire to come out west. After much prayer and confirmation, we packed up and made our way to Yucaipa, California, in July 2022!
My heart and vision for the J-high Ministry is to see hearts changed in the name of Jesus! My life verse is Psalm 119:105, “Your Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.” In the J-high Ministry, we believe that all Scripture is God-breathed. Therefore, we follow the same teaching pattern as our regular services, going verse by verse through the Bible!
