After almost two decades in full-time ministry, Lisette still knows there's nothing else she'd rather do! Starting in Canada and now in California, it's been an awesome adventure. Whether it has been serving the local church, speaking at camps and conferences, ministry coaching, teaching courses or writing curriculum, Lisette does it with passion and joy. Lisette loves spending time with children, students, leaders and parents, walking together and exploring what it means to truly live out our faith in Christ. Lisette loves the journey that Jesus invites us all into and knows it's only made better because she gets to do it with her husband, Kyle and kids, Abbi (15) and Mattias (13).

Angela Lee serves as Kids Pastor at Fellowship Monrovia. Born in NY having grown up along the East Coast, Angela is happy to now call California home. While she began her collegiate focus on business and marketing, her passion for working with students caused a shift in her academic goals.  She graduated with her degree in Human Services with a concentration in Clinical Services.  She went on and applied her degree by working with organizations such as Communities in Schools, the Boys & Girls Club, and the YMCA of Metropolitan Dallas. Knowing she was called to ministry since 19, Angela finally began walking in her passion and purpose by serving the youth in the Dallas area, and most recently Orange County, as a Junior High Pastor since 2010. Angela is the oldest of four children and credits her parents for fostering her love for others and her strong commitment to service.  Angela’s heart’s desire is to let every student she encounters know that they are great and they have greatness within them. More than that, she desires to walk alongside the young people she encounters as they discover their inner God-given greatness and achieve the purpose and plan they were gifted by God to fulfill.

Madison is currently serving as the Kids Coordinator, where she gets to do some of her favorite things-make lists and spreadsheets, hang out with lots of kids, color code paperwork, empower volunteers, and plan fun crafts and activities. 

Though she is originally from Southern California, she lived briefly in Arkansas, where she discovered a passion for teaching. Since coming back to her home state of California, she has continued to work extensively in kids ministries. 

From the moment she came to Fellowship, she knew it was home and was confident that God had been preparing her in advance for this season. She started as an intern with Kids shortly after returning from Arkansas and is overjoyed at the opportunity to transition onto the team!  Madison is currently a student, and is beyond excited to pursue Youth and Family Ministries at Azusa Pacific University and continue serving in family ministries.

Natalie Root grew up in Northern California, then moved to Southern California in 2013 to study Psychology with a concentration in Child Life at Azusa Pacific University for the next 4 years. She has been a member of Fellowship for 5 years and has recently joined the team this past August of 2017. She has a huge passion for people, advocating for children, and creating a ripple where everyone has story that deserves to be heard for them to be truly seen just as God does to us.
