Darlene Franks
I am the discipleship pastor at OroNaz in Oroville, California. My passion is to empower others to make disciples of Jesus who bear fruit that will last. I have served on the Sacramento District NDI board since 2005 where I am president and also the Co-Educational Field Coordinator for the PLNU region. My husband and I enjoy time with Jesus, family, our life group, a good cup of coffee and a walk on the beach.
