Leadership

Rev. William De Bos

Pastor William came to the Escondido UMC in July 2015 after eleven years at the First UMC in Upland, CA. Prior to that he served two appointments in the Hawaii District, spanning 17 years. He is committed to relational and collaborative ministry, and strives to reflect the beautiful diversity of the Kingdom of God announced and modeled by Jesus. Pastor William is married to Betsy, they have two grown and married children, and when he is not with family or playing with the grandchildren, you will find him outside gardening, golfing, or looking up to see what portrait the sky has to offer.

Rev. Broghan Hunt

Pastor Broghan joined the FUMCE team in 2021. She spends most of her time racing between the Sanctuary and Rise communities. Pastor Broghan is passionate about creating discipleship programing which helps everyone take their next most faithful step. She loves working collaboratively with the other pastors and with the people in the church. Pastor Broghan loves to see other people develop their relationships with God, with each other, and with the world around them. You can often find Pastor Broghan outside drinking coffee, eating ice cream, or enjoying a local craft beer. Good company makes all of those things better, so feel free to join her!

Rev. Dr. Benjamin Camp

Pastor Ben is passionate about journeying with people to discover the place where their deepest passions connect with the needs of the world. Ben joined the team in 2017 and spends most of his time cultivating and curating our modern worship community called Rise. When he's not preaching, he's probably reading theology, exploring prayer and spiritual practice, or drinking craft beer.

Rev. Ruben Torres

Pastor Ruben thinks the best thing that has ever happened to him is being able to help others live purposeful lives. In a church: humility, transparency, faith, love, tolerance and integrity are always necessary for healthy growth. En nuestra Iglesias todos son bienvenidos.
