Our Team

Pastor Caleb Griffith

Lead Pastor

My wife, Jocelyn, and I have been happily married since 2015, and we are blessed with three wonderful boys: Corban, Cyrus, and Cole, all under the age of six.

My journey in ministry started in 2017 when I felt called to serve as a youth pastor at a Presbyterian church in New Zealand. In 2019, God led me to another small town in New Zealand to be an Associate Pastor. In 2022, Jocelyn and I felt a new direction from God, guiding us back to the church my grandfather, Pastor Crosswhite, had planted here in Statesville, North Carolina.

It's been quite a journey with its fair share of challenges and delays, but we've seen God move mountains and open doors to bring us here. We're incredibly excited about what He is doing and will continue to do in the future. I can't wait to meet you and share in this wonderful community.

When I'm not at the church, you'll probably find me enjoying a good cup of coffee or out fishing. I look forward to connecting with you!
