About Us

From Pastor Joel

I’d like to personally welcome you to our Grace Pointe Church Family.  My family and I (Wife, Kristie, and 3 Teenagers, Karalina, Kaden, and Karis) were all called to GPC in July of 2018 and that is when I began serving here as the Lead Pastor/Lead Follower. 

When I began my journey in pastoral ministry in ’99, I would never have dreamed that God would move us to Florida from Illinois, and lead us to be able to serve in a church like this, with so many people who love the Lord, want to grow in their commitment to Him, and want to serve both our community and the world. We are so grateful for God’s grace in our lives and in the lives of our church home.

OUR MISSION

By God’s Grace, we LOVE Unconditionally, GROW Spiritually, and SERVE Faithfully.

OUR Vision

Under the direction of our church eldership, we were led to the vision that by “Experiencing God’s Presence, Grace Pointe Church is a church that is repossessed by God.”  We want his Presence to overwhelm our lives, and specifically be a church, a body of believers,  where when we come together that we would acknowledge and follow His lead, His desires, His will for our church.
