About Brian Paine
Some say I was born to work with youth. For the past thirty-plus years, I’ve devoted my
life to teaching, coaching, mentoring, and supporting kids of all ages. I believe Jesus
has called me to serve and encourage young people, to be an agent of hope in their
lives. It’s an honor to help introduce them to their Lord and Savior as they discover their
true, lasting identity in Jesus Christ.
I was born in Kennewick, WA, graduated high school from Cashmere and earned my
degree while playing basketball at Washington State University (Go Cougs!). I became
a chaplain in 2014 and a pastor in 2019. I’ve had the privilege of living and serving in
several small Eastern Washington towns, currently live in Bridgeport, and I deeply love
the people and the small-town way of life. I’m a proud dad to six amazing kids, and
Grandpa to one outstanding grandson: Griffyn and husband Matt Barnes, Paityn and
husband Jeremy Fisch and grandson, Beurn, my son Keiphen, and my daughter
Raegan.
