Our Leaders

Rev. David Medina, Pastor 

David was saved at the age of five and has been involved in music ministry since age eight. He has tried, albeit unsuccessfully, to “retire” from worship ministry, but in 2011, he realized his life-long dream of music evangelism when Dapstep Ministries was born.

A native of San Francisco, David graduated from the University of San Francisco with a degree in Public Administration and received an MBA from St. Mary’s College in Moraga, CA.  David declares unashamedly that our Heavenly Father is the GOD of RESTORATION and it does not matter where you are on your journey. God wants you just the way you are – and He wants you now!

David lives in Martinez, CA with his husband, Emmanuel.

“Hoy es el día de salvación.  Dios te ama así como eres.   Nunca te olvides de Su misericordia.”

 

Claudia Amador, Vice-President of the Board

Claudia joined Dapstep Ministries in the Summer of 2016 as we began Dapstep 2.0.  Claudia is originally from Chinandega, Nicaragua, and met the Lord in the same Baptist Church where David Medina served in his early life.  In fact, they’ve known each other since their early teens.

Claudia is the embodiment of a woman with a servant’s heart; but this is not a mystery.  Claudia’s parents were faithful servants at Primera Iglesia Bautista del Sur in San Francisco for many years and Claudia’s mom has always been instrumental in fellowship ministry.  Now, Claudia lives her mother’s example preparing the Lord’s Table, and organizes the “Hygiene Bags for the Homeless” project, our very first and exciting yearly community service project.

Claudia has become such a vital, integral part of Dapstep Ministries that it became obvious, very quickly, she would become part of our leadership.

Claudia lives in Pinole, CA.  She has four children.
