JULIE RIENERTH

OFFICE ADMINISTRATOR

Nicknames: Mama J , Miss Juji, JuJu, Ju. | Enneagram: 7w6 | APEST: Evangelist | Kids: Savannah

Background: I am originally from the East Coast and made my way to San Diego early in my career. Subsequent career and family changes had me moving to Nashville, TN where I raised and lived with my daughter Savannah until she left for graduate school. That is when I felt the call to come back to California. A few years later, in 2020, in the midst of the pandemic, I returned to the city I loved. I have served in every capacity of Administrative Service from Receptionist to Director of Administration and love supporting anyone within the organization in which I serve. “It’s my jam” and brings me great joy to help others succeed.

Current Role: I am the Office Administrator, as well as part of the finance team and work closely with the Executive Pastor and serve the staff and church thru daily administration of the office and property here at Grace. If you call or visit the church office, it's me you will most likely encounter first. You will be greeted with a friendly voice or smile and an unchanging desire to meet and serve the families and people of Grace. I also serve on Sundays with our First Impressions Team as Service Lead over the Coffee Area. I love wearing many hats in order to serve the people of Grace, so don’t be surprised wherever you see me.

Hobbies: I love cooking and baking and gardening, as well as writing and creative art pursuits. On my off days you will most likely find me out in my backyard taking care of my numerous succulent plants. Also, any chance I am able to spend time with my daughter, I am in my happy place.

Fun Fact: 1) Once I retire, I’d love to start a little cafe. 2) I can remember most people’s names the first time I meet them.
