Director of Kid's Ministry
Meet Centerpoint Church
The story of Centerpoint Church began in 1877 when a few brave women and men opened the doors to a church in Sioux Center, Iowa. Since then, Centerpoint has seen immense growth and transformation. In 2017, with a vision to expand the reach of the Kingdom locally, regionally, and globally, a new location was launched in Hawarden, Iowa.
We believe we exist to make Christ known and we do that by knowing Christ, growing together, and reaching beyond ourselves to help others do the same.
Our vision is to reach young families and beyond with Gospel-centered truth for the head and heart that impacts lives and transforms our communities for Christ, especially mindful of those who are new to our communities and/or far from Jesus.
At Centerpoint Church, we carry out our mission and vision by centering on the gospel, transforming lives, prioritizing healthy culture, valuing generations, and living on mission.
Come join our team as we make Christ known!
