Grace Point Baptist Church

Originally from South Africa, my family and I have made Kansas City our home. Coming from a background of international missions, we know that God has called us to this city to be missionaries in our community.

“Jesus is passionate about discipleship and so am I. I enjoy helping others know and love God more so that our love for one another will grow!”

I have been in full time ministry for 38 years now, and love seeing people change and for all the things that hinder love to be removed!

I have always loved discipleship. I believe it is such an important tool for the church today.

I I have served in Children’s Ministry and with children in many capacities for the past 28 years. I am passionate about seeing our children encounter the living God. I love children and want to help create a safe place here at Grace Point for them to learn, grow, and be able to proclaim the love of Christ to others.

Ed grew up on a dairy farm near Coffeyville, KS, in a family of 10 children. He has had a variety of work experience, including Christian ministry, painting, truck driving, and various other occupations. Ed became a Christian in 1972, and a year later he met Pam, the lady who would become his wife. They married in 1978 and are the grateful parents of six children and 13 grandchildren.

Ed and Pam became Kansas City residents in 2015, and began attending Grace Point in 2020. They are grateful to be a part of such a dynamic and loving fellowship.

After staying home to raise our sons, the Lord opened the door for me to work here at Grace Point.

We are so thankful that He led us to this church body – it truly feels like family!
