Daniel Neiditch
Founder/CEO
Daniel "Danny" Neiditch founded Prodigal Sons in 2013 to help churches reach out to gang neighbors and to see bridges built between street culture and the church. Growing up, Danny was adjacent to the gang lifestyle, and, after becoming a Christian, during college, began to get involved with others who were ministering to gang members. He founded Prodigal Sons at the encouragement of some of the pastors of Cornerstone West LA, where he continues to serve as a member. His heart is to see churches in gang neighborhoods proactively caring about all of their neighbors, and to see gang neighbors saved and playing key roles in God's work in the church and in the world.
Danny is a third generation Angeleno, and a life long Lakers, Dodgers, and avid street tacos fan.

Brian Dillard
Director of Partnership Development

Brian works to connect churches and community members to opportunities to trust God with Prodigal Sons for transformed lives of gang neighbors. For nearly a decade Brian and his wife Christina worked with Cru, a global Christian missions organization. Brian began getting to know Daniel and Prodigal Sons in 2015 and, after years of friendship and a shared heart for neighborhoods in Los Angeles, Danny invited Brian to come on board in this role in 2019. Brian lives in the Historic South Central neighborhood of LA with his wife, 4 children, and two loud dogs. He loves the (nearly) perfect LA weather, frequenting the taco truck down the street, and having people over to the house to hangout. With Prodigal Sons, Brian is excited to see what God might do as churches begin to pursue their gang neighbors. |
