Kyle Lum

Operations Pastor

Kyle is a “founding member” of New Hope, volunteering from day one in 1995.  He left an 11-year dental industry career to join the staff of NHO in 1999. His resume includes jobs such as the janitor, driver, Parking and Safety Director, Logistics Director, and Retreat Center Administrator on the island of Molokai (read that as caretaker) before becoming a licensed pastor in 2007. He currently serves the Operations Department of the church, ensuring that all “moving parts” are taken care of.

A graduate of Pacific Rim Christian University with 2 degrees (and currently working on his Masters), he has always preached the gospel of Jesus “in the shadows”, serving in practical ways in the lesser-seen areas of the church.

He lives in the Kapālama area of Oʻahu with his wife Kay, their children Daniel and Sarah, and 3 cats.
