Beachpoint Church

What Beachpoint Church does

Beachpoint Church is an independent, private nonprofit religious organization (presumed 501(c)(3)) headquartered at 17415 Magnolia Street, Fountain Valley, California, with approximately 15 employees. The church runs a single campus with three Sunday service times (8:30, 9:45, 11:15 a.m.) and serves congregants primarily in Fountain Valley, Huntington Beach, Oak View, and the broader Orange County area. Its ministry portfolio spans the full age spectrum: Kids Ministry (birth through 5th grade) including Wednesday NiteLIGHT programming, Students Ministry with CROWD for middle schoolers (Tuesdays 7-8:30 p.m.) and ROCK for high schoolers, a Young Adults Ministry (18-25) with First Thursdays gatherings and weekly Life Groups, and a Music & Production worship arts team. Community-facing programs include a Food Pantry serving the Oak View neighborhood (100+ families served, 500+ truckloads of food distributed) and international missions partnerships across Chad, India, Kenya, Vietnam, Mexico, the Middle East, and Thailand. The church also operates The Wave Preschool & School-Age Care as a separately branded early childhood program.

The church's technology stack is built on the Planning Center ecosystem, including the Church Center mobile app for life groups, kids check-in, event sign-ups, volunteer scheduling, and giving. Online giving runs on Planning Center Giving (recently migrated from Pushpay) with recurring, one-time, and designated missions giving options. Content distribution is multi-channel: live streaming at live.beachpoint.com, an Apple Podcast feed (id1001846505), a YouTube archive, an email newsletter, and ministry-specific Instagram accounts. Educational products include the DESIGN spiritual gifts course, a Revelation Commentary video series, the Love One Another podcast, and the S.O.A.P. Bible reading methodology. The church's proprietary "Rhythms" framework (Build Relationships, Experience God, Unleash Compassion) is its organizing spiritual development model.

Revenue is generated entirely through voluntary member tithes and offerings processed on a recurring monthly cadence, supplemented by merchandise sales through a Bonfire-hosted store and ancillary preschool tuition from The Wave. All worship services, programs, and educational content are offered free of charge. The church has no parent company, no institutional investors, no disclosed funding rounds, and no M&A activity. Its leadership includes a Worship Pastor (Mitch Krebs), Technical Director (Alex Monastra), Arts Director (Sondra Loranger), Choir Director (Cathy Julien), Young Adults Leader (Tim Nachef), and a rotation of teaching pastors and guest speakers.
