Pietro Parrilla

Worship Band Leader | band@calvinpc.org

Pietro Parrilla continues the ministry he has been doing with us more formally as our new Worship Band Leader. This part-time position will enable Pietro to serve as the “lead worshipper” as he recruits and rehearses members of our worship band as well as leads the band and our congregation in Sunday services. Pietro told me, “I’m excited to grow closer to God as a worshipper with Calvin Church so that our love and commitment to Jesus would grow stronger as a church.”

For years we’ve seen Pietro playing in both the band and string ensemble with Calvin, but in 2022–2023, he was a music and physical education instructor and English tutor while serving as a student volunteer with Living Bread Church in Jerusalem. He has a Bachelor of Science in exercise science from George Fox University. Regarding his hopes for Calvin, Pietro has shared, “Through worship, I hope that we will become awakened to the reality of the Kingdom of God in our midst, and we have been invited to partake in this together as one body to truly be a light in the darkness.”
