Our Elders

---

Marty Johnson has been an elder at Hidden Valley for the past twenty-three years. A salesman by profession, Marty has served in the Navy and Navy reserves, completed a tour of duty in Kuwait, and recently retired from the Navy. He and his wife Paula have been members of Hidden Valley since 1985. They have three children, Garrett and his wife Kristyl, Bryant, Melissa and her husband James, and four grandchildren. Marty lists his favorite scripture as Psalm 19:14 ‘Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my strength and my Redeemer.’ His goal is, as Paul wrote the the Christians in Ephesus, ‘endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace’ [Ephesians 4:3]
