Christians In Real Estate (CIRE) was formed in 1996 with the intent to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with professionals in the real estate and related industries.
Christians In Real Estate was inspired and birthed through the prompting of the Holy Spirit to Jerry Young, the Founder of Christians In Real Estate, also known as CIRE.
The original founders were Jerry Young, Clayton Tom and Joe Paikai. As Joe recalls, in 1995 both he and Jerry were inspired by the Lord to form a group of Christian real estate agents. The founders didn’t know what it looked like, but they were clear it would be for Christians in the real estate industry. During the birthing of CIRE our real industry was struggling, and the time was right for help from God, who prompted this group to grow over the ensuing years.
After functioning for three years as a private endeavor, Christians In Real Estate was established as a 501 (c)(3) in January 1999. The core team members of CIRE began meeting with consultants Dennis Bunda and Steve McPeek to develop a strategic plan to grow the organization. CIRE Directors and members at that time were: Ruth Komatsu, Sam Underwood, Joyce Miura, Jane Noe, Hanne Larue, Bruce Hicks, Caydie Sitch, Elizabeth Garcia and Valerie Sorensen.
By faith, not knowing what the group would look like or where they would go with it, they were Spiritually prompted to form a group that would share the Lord with one another and help each other. The first lunch held was not intended to be a hosted event, but by the moving of the Holy Spirit a guest stepped forward and paid for the lunch. The first event welcomed 12 guests, including Joe, Clayton, Jerry and others. The group then produced CIRE’s vision and mission to which we adhere today. Hence, Christians in Real Estate was birthed.
Aloha my name is Elizabeth G. Garcia, President of Christians In Real Estate.
