Two Additions to CHET Staff Announced

BELL GARDENS, CA (July 19, 2005) - Two staff members have been added on an interim basis to Centro Hispano de Estudios Teologico (CHET), it was announced today.

Juan Andres Maldonado and Erika Carney Haub have been hired to help guide the school following the departure of Ed Delgado, the former dean, who is the new director of evangelism and prayer for the Department of Church Growth and Evangelism of the Evangelical Covenant Church. CHET seeks to train Hispanic pastors to serve in Spanish-speaking congregations.

Maldonado is serving as the executive assistant to the president. Maldonado graduated North Park University with a Bachelor of Science degree and North Park Theological Seminary with a Master of Arts degree in theological studies. He is a member of Redeemer Covenant Church in Downey, California.

For the past four years, Maldonado has been an active volunteer at CHET as an assistant professor and most recently has served as vice chair for Bernabé Community Center, a bilingual center for community development. He also has worked as a senior project manager in the environmental consulting industry.

"It is truly a privilege to join this team of amazing people and continue witnessing the hand of God moving in the life of current and future church leaders," Maldonado says. He and his wife, Rita, reside in Glendale.

Haub is serving as the director of business affairs and fund development. She is a graduate of North Park with a Bachelor of Art's degree and of Fuller Theological Seminary with a Master of Divinity degree. She is a member of Church of the Redeemer in Los Angeles.

Most recently she was the director of Adventures Ahead, an after-school literacy program in south-central Los Angeles. She was the founding director of the After Hours program at North Park. She lives in Los Angeles with her husband, Douglas, and daughter, Mercy.

"I am thrilled to join such a passionate and capable staff team, and to share in the exciting mission of training present and future leaders in the Hispanic community," she says.

Whether Maldonado and Haub remain on staff is undetermined. The school's board of directors is studying whether administrative offices need to be rearranged, says CHET President Jorge Maldonado.
