Leadership and Ministry Staff

Pastor Jake & Jessica Korkian

Lead Pastors Jake and Jessica Korkian have been the pastors at Cstone Church, New Bern, for two years. They bring in over twenty years of experience, ranging from youth leadership, women’s ministry, and local outreach.

After serving in the military for over 25 years, Pastor Jake began to feel the Lord impress on his spirit that full time ministry was his true calling. Using the leadership and communication skills developed over two decades in the United States Marines, Jake has made it his mission to reach, teach, and develop ambassadors for the Body of Christ.

As a wife and mother of four, Jessica has devoted her life to serving our Cstone family in numerous roles, including women’s ministry, marriage counseling, and sometimes rolling her sleeves up to help in community outreach.

Jake and Jessica are a true testament that with faith in God and perseverance, life can truly be rich in happiness, blessings, and emotional fulfillment. In addition to church leadership, they enjoy spending time with their four children and three grandchildren.

    Youth and Worship Ministry

    We moved to New Bern and have been members of Cstone Church since 2013. When we first set foot here at Cstone, we knew we were home. We have been faithfully serving on the worship team, council, and kids’ church leaders and are now the Student and Worship Pastors. We grew up in an Assembly of God Church in Massachusetts, where we served in youth and worship ministry and helped start a contemporary young adult service. We have been married since 2002 and have two children together. We are passionate about teaching others how to be worship leaders and worshippers and how to take charge of their own service. It is our goal to connect others to Christ by empowering and teaching them how to be leaders right where they are!

    Little Blessings Childcare Director

    In October of 2021, I was welcomed with open arms into the Cstone family. I currently hold the position as the director of Little Blessings Childcare. My husband and I were stationed here at Cherry Point 3 years ago. In those three years, I personally had a hard time transitioning to a new state, working through college, and trying to find a workplace where I fit in. I found that place in Cstone Church. I am forever grateful for the blessings God has given me through this organization, and I am excited to see where God is going to take me and my future here at Cstone.

  • Evan Moore

    Enrich Director

    Hi, I’m Evan Moore, and I began attending Cstone in the spring of 2020. I am now the director of the Enrich Children’s Program and a volunteer at Children’s Church. I picked Cstone because their motto “serving the whole community” has action behind it. I feel my calling is to make connections with the community and touch the lives of children, and Cstone allows me the opportunities to fulfill that calling.

  • Diane Baldwin

    Bookkeeper

    My name is Diane Baldwin, and I started attending Cstone Church after relocating to Eastern North Carolina when I married my husband. I was initially hired in 2006 as the church secretary, but soon transitioned into the bookkeeper position. I was raised in an Assembly of God Church with the best mentor ever, my grandmother. I love the Lord with my whole heart and love this Cstone family.
