Our Staff

 


Rev. Dr. Bob Zurinsky | Senior Pastor
bob@emmanuelphinneyridge.org

Bob was born and raised in West Seattle (and then Gig Harbor). He was originally planning for a career in medicine, and completed degrees in biology and biochemistry. After college, however, a fascination with Bible and theology took over, and he found himself in seminary at Regent College in Vancouver BC (with a little bit of Fuller Seminary and University of Oxford on the side). For 11 years before coming to Emmanuel, Bob worked in campus ministries at Seattle Pacific University, and during that period also completed the Doctor of Ministry degree at Drew University in New Jersey. Bob is ordained to Word and Sacrament in The Evangelical Covenant Church, and is married to the remarkable Dr. Danielle Reaves Zurinsky. He loves cooking (not baking), caring for his nephews, and figuring out what it means to speak and live the Christian Story in the 21st century.

 

Rev. Deborah Adams | Church Administrator 
admin@emmanuelphinneyridge.org

Deborah was born and raised in New Hampshire, and moved to Seattle 20 years ago from Maine. A graduate of Andover Newton Theological School in Boston, she has pastored a number of churches in Washington State and throughout New England and is currently a retired ordained minister in the United Church of Christ. When she’s not at Emmanuel, you can find her hiking, spending times with family and friends, and taking her grandkids on mystery rides! If you’re interested in connecting with her, stop by the office for a cup of coffee or tea. Deborah is our primary contact for building use, finance, and business administration.

Deborah can be reached using the email address above or on the office phone: (206) 632-5539  

Regular Office Hours: Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday from 10am to 2pm

Em Weissman | Connection & Care Coordinator
em@emmanuelphinneyridge.org

Emily Weissman is a Seattle transplant, born and raised in sunny California. She has a B.A. from SPU and a Masters in Communication Management from USC. When she is not off organizing something, she enjoys corny dance movies, snail mail, and waffles. Contact Em if you are interested in the Congregational Care ministries at Emmanuel, or if you are looking for opportunities to connect and build relationships with others in the church community!

 

Victor Puentes Jr. | Facilities Manager
facilities@emmanuelphinneyridge.org

Victor lives on-site at Emmanuel and serves as our Facilities Manager – the first line of defense for maintenance and building issues. Born and raised in San Francisco and Seattle, and a graduate of the Berklee School of Music in Boston, Victor is passionate about music and community. He can be contacted for building maintenance requests through the email address above. For emergencies that can’t wait for an electronic response, building tenants may call Victor directly.

 

Jansen

Jansen Leggett | Worship Director
jansen@emmanuelphinneyridge.org

Jansen grew up in Richland WA on the dry side of the state. He attended Whitworth University in Spokane where he studied classical, jazz, and sacred music. He spends most of his free time cooking, hiking, and learning to play as many instruments as possible. Jansen works with Bob to plan Sunday worship services and coordinates the music at Emmanuel. Any musicians interested in joining the team on Sunday mornings should contact him!
