Pastor John Roamer Jr. leads the Coronado Baptist Church. He has served as Pastor for the last past 8 years, and is predecessor to his father John Roamer Senior. Although Pastor John Jr's background is in engineering he said his heart was pulling him in a different direction and at that moment he took the appropriate steps and schooling to take after his father and take over his ministry after retirement.
Pastor John Roamer Jr. is highly educated and works around the clock to make sure his church runs like clockwork:
*Wednesday- Pastor John leads a Bible Study going from 7:00pm. till 8:30pm.
*Thursday- Pastor John leads a Bible Study at the Harvey Mendel a Father Joe's development in Downtown San Diego
* Sunday he hosts a bible study at 10am. followed by his Sunday sermon at 11am.
* Hosts a monthly Potluck last Sunday of the month
Pastor John's sermons follow the times and focus on the current problems we are facing in today's society, they are very relevant and easy to follow. His doors and phone line are always open to church patrons, offering help and guidance and referrals to those in need.
Pastor John has worked with displaced families, divorces, child custody issues, job loss, addiction, health issues you name it he has lent a hand to help. Also, a pretty amazing fact is that Pastor John has only missed one Sunday sermon in his 8 years of preaching.
Musical talent is alive at this church! The Sefa- Boyake symphony consists of three young men that are gifted in playing multiple instruments, electric guitars and piano. Daryl Duncan has graced the church in singing and playing both acoustic and electric guitar. He wrote a classic song that's popular with the church goers called "Jesus on the Main Line." Together they are a musical splendor that can't be beat.
One of my favorite things about this church is their loving day care and Preschool, directed by Coronado's very own Mrs. Martha who has raised and watched after hundreds of local kids. She is a wonder with kids and has put together an all-star staff. My son has attended the day care and pre-school and had sweet caring teachers like Mrs. Daphne, Mrs. Amy, Mrs. Mercedes and Mrs. Angie. Mrs. Elvia is the school chef and has made sure all the children have warm and healthy meals. They run a well put together program for the kids with structure. My son learned a lot and worked on many creative projects. I'm greatly appreciative for all the teachers there and would recommend them to any parent that has a toddler in need of pre-school and day care. read more
