The Lord grabbed a hold of Leisa and I in 1989 & 1990 respectively. We are so thankful for His salvation and impact in our lives and family. We have been blessed with 5 children and are so grateful to have had seasons of working in ministry together with each one of them. All but our youngest are now married to wonderful spouses. We also have 8 grandkids and counting. What a joy it is to be pastoring with the family of God here at R.H since 1996. God’s faithfulness is unsurpassed!
Paul & Rachel Rusin
Administration | p_rusin@verizon.net rachelrusin1969@gmail.com
Rachel and I have been married for 31 years. We are both retired. Rachel retired from CNA Insurance Corp. after 26 years as an Administrative Assistant. I retired as a Fire Captain from Los Angeles County Fire Dept. I have been a Chaplain with LA County Fire since 2007.
Rachel and I were saved in 2000/2001 respectively at Calvary Chapel Golden Springs in Diamond Bar, CA. We have a 31year old Son, Brandon, who at the age of 10, got us attending Golden Springs after he got saved. We have a large extended Family, as well as Church Family, which now includes Redemption Hill Calvary Chapel!
WE LOVE YOU ALL!
After graduating Calvary Chapel GS Bible College in 2020, and with the encouragement of our Pastors, Rachel and I began to pray about “going out”. In June of 2021, we felt lead to leave So Cal and relocate to Parker, AZ fulfilling God’s call on our lives here at Redemption Hill.
We look forward to what God will continue to do here in Lake Havasu City, as we support the work that Pastor Ray and Leisa started some 25 years ago.

I started at RHCC as the Administrator in 2021 but have been attending the church the majority of my life. After High School I left Arizona for about 8 years but returned to Lake Havasu to be closer to family. My Husband and I married in 2018 and have since been blessed with two little girls. It’s such a joy to see all that God has done through RHCC over the years!

Cleaning Ministry
I had the privilege of coming to know the Lord as a young girl in a Christian school. Go Christian schools! The Lord’s faithfulness and fellowship have been life sustaining and renewing throughout the years.
Along the way, He has been gracious to let me serve in a youth group, on a hotline for runaways, as a reading tutor and overseeing a district for youth soccer and it’s tournaments. I am a retired Fire Dispatcher. My husband, Rod and I met in our junior year of high school and were married 2 years after I graduated. We have two adult children and we are indeed blessed.

My wife, Jessica Malkus, is my hero, she was saved first, and through her persistent prayers and convincing testimony I found Jesus. I was saved in 2004 through the teaching of God’s Word, and the ministry of Pastor Ray Carter.
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.
