Steve and I are very blessed to have three wonderful young men, Kristopher, Kyle and Kameron that encourage us and keep us going. We love being part of a wonderful body of believers who are so friendly and help us in our walk with the Lord. When we are not at Crosspoint, we love to spend time together as a family enjoying movies, having fun listening to music, enjoying family time, watching soccer or cooking in the kitchen.

KIDZpoint Director
The Air Force brought Justin, my husband, and I to Sumter in 2015. Since then we have been blessed with a son named Elijah. Crosspoint has been a wonderful extension to our family. We feel so much support and love from our church community! They have helped us grow spiritually and continually challenge us as disciples in our faith. I completed my Masters Degree in Early Childhood Education in 2018; but as a lifelong learner, I welcome every opportunity to grow more. I am grateful to be apart of the KIDZpoint ministry team and to share God’s love to the children and families of Crosspoint.

Jason Troutman
Setup & Maintenance Originally from Monticello, GA, I moved to Sumter in 2002 after I felt the Lord telling me to move. With no idea of where to find a job, I received a call from Alice Drive Baptist Church to fill in on weekends and it soon became a full time job doing maintenance and setup. Shortly after, I met my wife Julie and we were married. In 2009, I began working part-time at Crosspoint doing the same job. When we get a break, Julie and I enjoy traveling, watching NASCAR or catching a baseball game. |
