Charles “Chuck” Isaac, Associate Pastor

Chuck is a native El Pasoan whose family arrived as immigrants from Lebanon in the Middle East at the turn of the last century. They settled in El Paso in the 1920’s and have been part of the vast multi-cultural fabric of the Southwest ever since. Chuck and his wife, Marivi, whose family emigrated from Cuba to El Paso in 1961, owned and operated Genesis Laboratories for 20 years in El Paso before deciding to attend graduate school at Reformed Theological Seminary in Orlando, Florida. It was there Chuck received a Master of Divinity in 2000 and pastored Pleasant Hill Presbyterian Church in Kissimmee, Florida until accepting a call to Christ the King El Paso in 2003 where he continues to serve as a pastor. Chuck and Marivi love the Southwest and enjoy everything about the rich culture of their community and natural beauty of the desert... but occasionally they wish the ocean was closer to all this sandy beach! Chuck is a Teaching Elder in the PCA.
