Pastor Jonathan is a French transplant here in Walla Walla! Born and raised in the north of France, he met his wife, Valerie, while attending Bible School in Belgium. They share a passion and calling to reach, teach, and serve all people! Jonathan's desire is to come alongside believers for them to discover their true calling and potential in Christ.
Valerie started playing the piano when she was six years old and loves to worship the Lord in music. She is a licensed minister with the Assemblies of God. She also serves in the public school system and loves animals.
Jonathan and Valerie have three daughters: Arialee, Chayelle, and Harmonie. They each share and contribute to the Amsing family culture by always looking to discover Christ's hand-print in everything around them and then in turn share it!
The Amsings moved from Post Falls, Idaho to Walla Walla in September of 2017. After several years in banking management, Jonathan received the invitation to pursue God's calling here at First Assembly. Jonathan is ordained with the Assemblies of God.
For fun you will find the Amsing family discovering new hiking trails, engaged in a game of foosball or a board game, participating in community events, or elbows-deep in their garden, often together with friends! In the Amsing family there's always room for one more friend of any age to join in, and we can't wait to meet you!
Our family verse is: Isaiah 55
