Sean Sy
Connections Director / Elder
Sean was born in Chicago, and split his time growing up between Dallas and the San Francisco Bay Area. He now lives in Lewisville, TX with his beautiful wife Justine (married 2005) and two amazing children Chloe and Daylen. Joining the GHC family in 2012, he’s served in various roles and ministries including praise leader, small groups, discipleship, evangelism and outreach, guest preacher, and youth worship director. He currently volunteers at GHC as a lay member of the church staff, serving as the Connections Director as well as on the elder board.
Though exposed to Christianity at an early age, Sean came to a personal, saving faith in Jesus back in 2003 while in his early 20s. Since then his relationship with the Lord has carried him through both triumph and tragedy in life— only increasing his love for, obedience to, and dependency on Christ. He is humbled to experience the grace of God and the power of Christ to redeem, restore, and renew a lost and broken sinner such as himself.
Sean has a passion for encouraging and discipling people according to God’s Word, and to see their love for Christ manifest through faith and joyful obedience to the Lord. While completing his B.Sc. in Industrial Engineering from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo (2002), he continues his ongoing biblical and spiritual education through M.Ts/M.Div coursework and curriculum, and has also earned certifications in biblical studies, theology, and church leadership through online seminary programs.
Working full-time in the corporate world of IT, Sean is a huge advocate of considering all areas of life as a mission field. In his spare time he enjoys music, creative arts, good food, and sports; but most of all he loves spending quality time with his wife and kids.
