Children's Ministry
Welcome and thank you for attending the Children’s Ministry parent orientation.
I am aware that many of you are busy serving in various ministries so we will keep this meeting brief. General questions are welcome, but for the sake of time, I ask that you wait until the end of the meeting if you have any specific topic you wish to discuss in detail.
The main objectives of the orientation are to:
Please feel free to your child’s teacher or me if you have any concerns or requests regarding the ministry and/or your child. Any information you share will remain confidential or shared only within the Children’s ministry staff with your permission.
*If you have any specific issues you are dealing with your child, please do share them with me. Again, it will remain strictly confidential, but it will allow me the opportunity to support you, at the very least through prayer.
God Bless,
Pastor Heran Jang

A little bit about me…
I am married to David (Sangho) Ha. We live in Old Bridge with our 3 children. Teddy is starting his second year at Ruthers University, Kaitlyn will be entering Rutgers Engineering this year, and Amanda is a junior in High School.
My parents came to America in 1976 shortly after I was born. I came to America later when I was 3 with my grandfather. As a child, I lived with my parents, grandparents, aunts and uncle. Because of them, I did not completely forget Korean as I grew up. I also have a younger brother who lives in Oregon.
I did not come from a Christian family but by God’s grace, I attend a local church as a child and accepted Christ as my Savior at the age of 9. I attended Rutgers University for my undergrad andfelt called to serve in the children’s ministryso I came to Calvary at the end of my freshman year in 1995. I served as the director from 2004 to 2007, took a year off, then returned as the director from 2008 until 2012. I stepped down from Sunday school and served as the Christian Education secretary for a year until I accepted the position as Children’s pastor in 2014.
One reason I took time off from 2007-2008 was my health. In 2006, I was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease, something similar to ulcers in the small intestine. The affected area was removed and it has not returned. However, certain foods and circumstances trigger the symptoms, one of which is spicy foods. (So please do not be offended if I decline food.)
I enjoy crafts in general, but scrapbooking is my main passion. I sometimes crochet and sew as well.I also enjoy watching Korean drama, but only light-hearted ones. I get very emotionally attached to what I read or watch so I have to be careful.
I am naturally introverted and shy so I tend not to talk very much. I’ve been told that I seem unapproachable in the beginning, but only until you get to know me. So please, don’t be intimidated to approach me.
