LEADERSHIP
Dr. Mike Runion
Senior Pastor
When the Lord Jesus Christ called Gail and me into the ministry, we had no idea of the blessings He had in mind for us. We are honored to serve at City View First Baptist Church, believing we are serving in a God-given moment. God has spoken. We have heard. We believe that lives are changed in Jesus’ name and that our time has come to share Christ with the world.

Homebound Minister
Amy Siegler
Administrative Assistant
Born and raised near Rome, Georgia, I moved to Greenville in 1992. I have three daughters and six grandchildren and enjoy music and the outdoors. I joined the CVFBC staff in December 2022 and quickly developed a loving relationship with the church family. Please let me know how I may assist you, as I am here to serve!
Minister of Music
The Bible says, “make a joyful sound to the Lord.” If you have any musical talent and would like to be part of our adult Celebration Choir, our Worship Praise Team, or our worship band, you’re invited to come and worship the Lord in song.
After serving churches in South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, and Texas over the past 30 years, I have returned home to serve as the Minister of Music at City View. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Religion from Charleston Southern University and was a former lead singer for The Tidesmen, based in Travelers Rest. My wife, Missie, and I have four married, adult children and are proud to have three amazing grandchildren.
Dr. Jaime Cortez
Hispanic Pastor
As the Hispanic Pastor at Cityview First Baptist Church, I am committed to sharing the Gospel, discipling believers, and fostering a Christ-centered community. With a passion for biblical teaching and pastoral care, I aim to lead the Hispanic congregation in worship, spiritual growth, and outreach initiatives that impact the local community through preaching, counseling, and community outreach. Through this ministry, we seek to encourage and strengthen the Hispanic community in their walk with Christ. At Cityview First Baptist Church, our goal is to see lives transformed by the power of the Gospel.
“Nuestro propósito es glorificar a Dios, crecer en Su Palabra y extender Su amor a todos.”
Grace & Peace,
Jaime Cortez
