I'm from North Carolina, and met my wife in Houston, Texas at a mega church. We moved down to the Rio Grande Valley for a trucking business, and I was captured by Christ about a year into our marriage. I've never been the same. I went into full time ministry, and we planted churches for almost 10 years. We have three amazing daughters, and love San Antonio!
Our desire for Mission Church is to see discipleship happen on the local level and for churches to be planted all around the city and through the state. We are thankful for our Mission family!

I’ve lived in San Antonio since 1995. San Antonio is my hometown. I really love this city and it's people. I began working in ministry in 2002… at various churches and in varying capacities. God has graciously allowed me, over the years, to do short-term mission work all over the world. It was actually on a mission trip in Colorado in 2002 where I first met my beautiful wife and best friend, Anna. We’ve been married since 2004, and God has blessed us with two amazing kids, I just love being a dad. I have been at Mission Church since February of 2009. It has truly been one of the great privileges of my life to serve our Mission Church family over the years, to watch Jesus care for and grow His church, and to witness Him change people’s lives in our midst.
FUN FACT: I went to high school in Ensenada, Mexico.

I grew up outside a small town called Hearne, TX which is near College Station. My beautiful wife, Kylee, and I have been married for 4 years. We have 2 daughters, 3 cats, and 1 dog. Mission Church is so special to us. It is where we met, were married, and started our family. We moved away for the last couple of years before God graciously called us back to Mission to serve in this role. We are so excited to serve, love, and worship with the people of this wonderful city! I hope you will join us!

Kristi Spraggins...
I grew up in a small town in Northern California in the middle of the Redwood forest. My brother and I spent the majority of our time climbing trees, riding dirt bikes and exploring the outdoors till it was time for dinner. My parents moved to Pipe Creek Texas in 2005 and in 2009 they asked me to join them in Texas. I decided to join them with excitement but also with trepidation as I’ve never been the new kid before.. Not too long after I moved here I got involved in a Mission Church community group and then soon became a church member. A few years later I married my husband Jarod Spraggins, and it has been one of my greatest privileges in life to raise our two children Addeline and Julian. I just love being a parent! Mission Church has been a special place for my family because it experience the first church we both ever attended where it was so much more than just showing up on Sunday and then leaving. There was a strong thriving community there that wanted to live a deep, meaningful relationship with us, and although this caught us a little off guard, it has been a life changing experience. I now can say that one of my absolutely favorite things to do is live a deep, meaningful relationship with people and to hear their stories. Through becoming a church member, and now becoming the Director of Children's Ministries, I am still amazed that I get to live out my calling as a carrier. It has truly been a transformative and redemptive experience being involved with mission and watching Jesus care for and grow His church. I am beyond excited to meet you all personally and hear your story!

I’m a San Antonio native and grew up 5 minutes away from where Mission Church is today! I’ve been attending Mission for many years and I served as a worship volunteer for most of those years. I joined staff in 2021 as a Creative Arts Intern and graduated from Texas A&M - San Antonio in May of 2022. I got my start as a creative serving on the production team when I was in youth group, and eventually landed a media team job at a christian summer camp in 2017. I run a photo and video business as a side hustle; I’m so grateful I get to do what I love! In my free time, you’ll catch me dabbling in music, automotive, photo/video, or gaming. It is such a joy to be a part of this ministry!

A few years later I married my husband Jarod Spraggins, and it has been one of my greatest privileges in life to raise our two children Addeline and Julian. I just love being a parent! Mission Church has been a special place for my family because it experience the first church we both ever attended where it was so much more than just showing up on Sunday and then leaving. There was a strong thriving community there that wanted to live a deep, meaningful relationship with us, and although this caught us a little off guard, it has been a life changing experience. I now can say that one of my absolutely favorite things to do is live a deep, meaningful relationship with people and to hear their stories. Through becoming a church member, and now becoming the Director of Children's Ministries, I am still amazed that I get to live out my calling as a carrier. It has truly been a transformative and redemptive experience being involved with mission and watching Jesus care for and grow His church. I am beyond excited to meet you all personally and hear your story!

I’m a San Antonio native and grew up 5 minutes away from where Mission Church is today! I’ve been attending Mission for many years and I served as a worship volunteer for most of those years. I joined staff in 2021 as a Creative Arts Intern and graduated from Texas A&M - San Antonio in May of 2022. I got my start as a creative serving on the production team when I was in youth group, and eventually landed a media team job at a christian summer camp in 2017. I run a photo and video business as a side hustle; I’m so grateful I get to do what I love! In my free time, you’ll catch me dabbling in music, automotive, photo/video, or gaming. It is such a joy to be a part of this ministry!

I'm from North Carolina, and met my wife in Houston, Texas at a mega church. We moved down to the Rio Grande Valley for a trucking business, and I was captured by Christ about a year into our marriage. I've never been the same. I went into full time ministry, and we planted churches for almost 10 years. We have three amazing daughters, and love San Antonio!
Our desire for Mission Church is to see discipleship happen on the local level and for churches to be planted all around the city and through the state. We are thankful for our Mission family!

I’ve lived in San Antonio since 1995. San Antonio is my hometown. I really love this city and it's people. I began working in ministry in 2002… at various churches and in varying capacities. God has graciously allowed me, over the years, to do short-term mission work all over the world. It was actually on a mission trip in Colorado in 2002 where I first met my beautiful wife and best friend, Anna. We’ve been married since 2004, and God has blessed us with two amazing kids, I just love being a dad. I have been at Mission Church since February of 2009. It has truly been one of the great privileges of my life to serve our Mission Church family over the years, to watch Jesus care for and grow His church, and to witness Him change people’s lives in our midst.
FUN FACT: I went to high school in Ensenada, Mexico.

I grew up outside a small town called Hearne, TX which is near College Station. My beautiful wife, Kylee, and I have been married for 4 years. We have 2 daughters, 3 cats, and 1 dog. Mission Church is so special to us. It is where we met, were married, and started our family. We moved away for the last couple of years before God graciously called us back to Mission to serve in this role. We are so excited to serve, love, and worship with the people of this wonderful city! I hope you will join us!

Jesus has been so good to me! I'm married to my beautiful wife, Kelley, and we have 3 lively children (Jett, Kennedy, and Karlie--all 3 years and under!).
As elder over local outreach, I'm passionate about mobilizing our church to live and proclaim the gospel in our city. I also thoroughly enjoy preaching and teaching God's Word.
May we be a church fueled by discipleship and encouragement through God's Spirit as we seek to advance Christ's kingdom here and across the globe.

I'm originally from Monterrey, Nuevo León, México but grew up in Houston, Texas. I've been married to my wife Juana since 2012. The Lord God has gifted us 4 beautiful children to love and disciple. Juana and I have had the opportunity to serve and grow at Mission Church since moving to San Antonio in 2013. My desire is that Mission Church would be a place where Christ alone is faithfully preached, and authentic Christ-like love lived out in our people. To God the glory forever and ever!

I'm originally from Monterrey, Nuevo León, México but grew up in Houston, Texas. I've been married to my wife Juana since 2012. The Lord God has gifted us 4 beautiful children to love and disciple. Juana and I have had the opportunity to serve and grow at Mission Church since moving to San Antonio in 2013. My desire is that Mission Church would be a place where Christ alone is faithfully preached, and authentic Christ-like love lived out in our people. To God the glory forever and ever!

I'm from North Carolina, and met my wife in Houston, Texas at a mega church. We moved down to the Rio Grande Valley for a trucking business, and I was captured by Christ about a year into our marriage. I've never been the same. I went into full time ministry, and we planted churches for almost 10 years. We have three amazing daughters, and love San Antonio!
Our desire for Mission Church is to see discipleship happen on the local level and for churches to be planted all around the city and through the state. We are thankful for our Mission family!

I’ve lived in San Antonio since 1995. San Antonio is my hometown. I really love this city and it's people. I began working in ministry in 2002… at various churches and in varying capacities. God has graciously allowed me, over the years, to do short-term mission work all over the world. It was actually on a mission trip in Colorado in 2002 where I first met my beautiful wife and best friend, Anna. We’ve been married since 2004, and God has blessed us with two amazing kids, I just love being a dad. I have been at Mission Church since February of 2009. It has truly been one of the great privileges of my life to serve our Mission Church family over the years, to watch Jesus care for and grow His church, and to witness Him change people’s lives in our midst.
FUN FACT: I went to high school in Ensenada, Mexico.

Jesus has been so good to me! I'm married to my beautiful wife, Kelley, and we have 3 lively children (Jett, Kennedy, and Karlie--all 3 years and under!).
As elder over local outreach, I'm passionate about mobilizing our church to live and proclaim the gospel in our city. I also thoroughly enjoy preaching and teaching God's Word.
May we be a church fueled by discipleship and encouragement through God's Spirit as we seek to advance Christ's kingdom here and across the globe.
