Faithful Then, Now, & Forever

Jones Family

The Jones family's story began in the house of God — where they met, fell in love, and built their life together. After getting married, they raised their three incredible boys rooted in faith and planted in the local church. Today, all three sons faithfully serve on our Creative Team, carrying their love for Jesus and His Church into the next generation. Their legacy is one of faithfulness, family, and a life built in God's house.

Jeff and Crystal's story is a testament to faithfulness and trust in God. Jeff, a single dad, encountered Jesus when his daughter invited him to church, and he committed to building his life around faith. Crystal, a single mom of four boys, focused on growing healthy, whole, and rooted in God while trusting Him for the right partner. Years later, their paths crossed while serving at church and through Celebrate Recovery. Today, their marriage reflects a life fully surrendered to Christ — a legacy of faith, family, and obedience that continues to inspire those around them.

My journey has been one of transformation, faith, and community. I once lived in grief, shame, and rebellion, but in 2019, after moving to Washington, I felt the Holy Spirit nudge me to find a church. Champions Centre became home, surrounding me with love and growth. In 2024, my faith deepened through a health scare, a visit to Kenya after five years, a career change, and my church family's generosity during my mom's hospitalization. A long-awaited prayer was answered when my boss paid for my citizenship, finalized in 2025. Once isolated, I now embrace connection, knowing God designed us for community. My story is proof that we are never alone when we trust Him.
