  • Seth & Hannah Beeson: FAMILY MINISTRIES DIRECTOR

    Hannah and I have been blessed to serve the Lord by working with teenagers and children for over a decade. God has given us a great passion for teaching young people the truth from God's Word so that they may grow up into faithful disciples of Christ. As it says in Psalm 78, we must teach our youth the work and words of the Lord, so they might set their hope in God and keep His commandments; so that we might see the working of the Holy Spirit transform the generations to come.

KEN CASTELLANOS: Lifepoint Church, Fillmore CA


Ken and his wife Janny started attending Lifepoint the first year the Church was planted. It was through this church plant that God radically saved us and transformed us both. God turned me away from the lifestyle of addictions and false religion. After several years of discipleship and spiritual development, we found ourselves called to plant a Spanish speaking church Lifepoint Español. In 2019 through much prayer and council we decided to move to California in order to minister to family in a very difficult season.  In November 2021 received a ready endorsement and joined the residency to plant a church in the LA area through the NAMB Send Network.

JON & ALICIA LOONEY: Lifepoint Missionaries Honduras


We started attending Lifepoint in 2012. Since our first Sunday we felt instantly included and a part of the Lifepoint family. Throughout our time at LPC we have grown in our relationship with Jesus through the encouragement and love we have received at Lifepoint. We got to participate in several short term mission trips and God use those trips to spark the flame in hearts for missions. My wife and I along with many others from Lifepoint prayed about where God was calling us and God gave us a clear calling to Honduras. We are now serving in Yamaranguila, Honduras as teachers and have started developing a special needs program in the school where we serve. Currently we are pastoring a new and growing church as we are able to share the love of Christ with the people here in Honduras.
