James Fruits is a self-proclaimed goofball that never matured past a 8th grade, which makes him a perfect candidate for our Collide Middle School ministry! He was on staff as a worship leader for two decades before opening his own business as a media and event producer. James loves celebrating with people at events and worship services and helping them tell their stories through video. James’ family’s story is one of continued redemption by God through difficult circumstances, making beauty out of ashes.

James is married to Kelly and he loves telling the amazing story of how God brought them together through CVC and how he used Frontlines to get that all started. Together, they have 4 kids: Malachi and Mylee, twins who are in their 4th year at the University of Toledo, Tonio, who graduated from North Royalton High School in the spring of 2023 and is now pursuing a few career options while doing a tech internship at CVC, and Max, who is a Senior at the Lawrence School in Nordonia. The Moore-Fruits bunch as they call themselves have identified being a Christ-Centered, Creative, Communicative, and Caring family as their family mission. When not serving somewhere at CVC, they love serving Love & Hope Children’s Home and the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, two organizations and causes near and dear to their heart.
