Long Beach - The Introduction

My name is Jon Rosene. I grew up in Santa Clarita and moved to Long Beach in 2005 to enroll in school at CSU Long Beach. I thought I was only coming for an education, but God had different plans. Soon after moving down here I accepted Christ in my life and it's been one heck of a journey since then. I also met the love of my life, Lydia Larson, in this city and somehow got her to marry me. The story He's developing with Long Beach is one that I am privileged to be wrapped up in. This blog is an attempt to capture a piece of the story God is writing for this incredible city.
