LBC Nursery Ministry, aka Fireflies, serves the youngest members of our church, ages 0-3 yrs. We are divided into 2 areas: Nursery 1 (from birth to about 16 months old), and Nursery 2 (from about 16 months old to 3 years old). We not only have play time, snack time, and potty time, but we also have Bible lesson time for Nursery 2 children where they learn different attributes of God. For instance, during the month one month, they learn about God’s sovereignty through the story of Jesus calming the wind and the sea and how He is the boss of everything (Matt. 8:23-27). They are taught the same lesson for the whole month along with a memory verse. For example, one memory verse is Ephesians 6:1, “Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.”
Our staff of about 30 ladies of all ages (college & up) absolutely loves the children that the parents entrust to us while they worship. Each staff member serves about once every 3 weeks. In addition to Sunday mornings, we also serve on occasions such as Christmas Concert, LBC Annual Banquet, and other events as needs arise. We are blessed to be part of this ministry not only because we participate in the lives of these children, who grow up ever so quickly, but also because we are involved in the lives of fellow sisters who serve here. We encourage the ladies to consider the times of serving as an act of worship. We try to hold each other accountable in our spiritual walk and be intentional even in our conversations while we serve. Because we have a number of moms serving as staff members, younger ladies are finding this ministry to be such a valuable opportunity to be learning from the older women in dealing with children (as in Titus 2).
The director of Fireflies is Carol Lim along with Lillian To (scheduling coordinator) and Brenda Hom (curriculum coordinator).

Hello, my name is Patrick Cho and I serve as the senior pastor at Lighthouse Bible Church. My wife Christine and I were married in October 2005, and we have one child, Eden Cassie, who was born in August 2008. I grew up in a Christian home and have lived in San Diego almost my entire life. Although I accumulated a lot of knowledge about the Bible and a basic understanding of the facts of the gospel as a child, it was not until my early years of college that God graciously saved me. He helped me to realize that I was living purely for myself and had not surrendered my life to Christ’s lordship. I praise God for my salvation and now strive to live in the strength He provides all for His glory.Some of my favorite hobbies include singing, playing guitar, cooking, and reading.
I am married to my lovely wife Caroline and have three children, Tyrone, Isaiah, and Amber, as well as a dog named Ranger. I attended UCSD for my undergraduate studies, majoring in Biochemistry and Cell Biology. I then attended USC for my graduate studies in physical therapy, receiving my Doctor of Physical Therapy degree in the spring of 2002. I am currently working full-time in San Diego as a physical therapist.
