MEET OUR CHURCH FAMILY
JOHN & SARA TEODOZOW 💙
You know them as our pastors. You may know them from Sunday mornings, Bible studies, kids ministry, or simply serving alongside you.
But today, we want you to get to know John & Sara a little more! 👋🏼
After 38 years of marriage and more than a decade serving together at Grace Point, their story is one of faith, service, growth, and a whole lot of God’s grace.
Here’s what they shared with us…
⛪ PASTOR JOHN
How long have you been at Grace Point?
“I have been here 12 years and I’m also the founding pastor.”
How did you and Sara meet?
“We met in Bible college, on the steps of the cafeteria at Baptist Bible College in Springfield, Missouri.”
When did you feel called to ministry?
“We had always served in our local church, but I didn’t feel the call to ministry until 2013.”
❤️ What do you love about our church family?
“Our church family is just real people doing their best to serve a real God.”
📖 Favorite Bible verse?
“Romans 8:1. It really freed me and helped me understand that the condemnation of God ends when salvation begins. Jesus took it all and paid it all.”
💡 One of the biggest lessons God has taught you in ministry?
“Wolves often come dressed as some of the best Christians.”
🦅 Something most people know about you?
“I’m a huge Philadelphia Eagles fan! I grew up in the shadow of Veterans Stadium for the most part.”
And apparently, we also need to know that Pastor John LOVES scrapple — a Pennsylvania Dutch breakfast food. 😂
(He strongly recommends that you Google it!)
🙏 What are you looking forward to at Grace Point?
“I’m looking forward to all that God has for Grace Point. I’m so encouraged by the discipleship that’s taking place and the people that God is bringing along to help me do this ministry.”
💙 SARA
How long have you been married?
“38 years on August 27!”
💍 How did you meet John?
“We met at Baptist Bible College in Springfield, Missouri, on the steps of the cafeteria.”
✨ Favorite part of serving alongside John?
“Honestly, I have my own ministries and giftings, but it’s great to have his support through everything.”
🙏 What has God been teaching you?
“To rely on Him more and worry less!”
💙 What do you love about Grace Point?
“My church family is amazing! I love being with everyone and learning and growing together.”
👧🏼 Favorite ministry?
“Kids ministry has become my favorite. My grandmother, Mammy, was instrumental in my love for all the Bible stories, and I like to think I am following her example. I want the kids to love Jesus like I do.”
📖 Favorite Bible passage?
“I love all the praise verses, especially Psalm 117. The whole chapter. All 2 verses of it. Praise the Lord!” 😂🙌🏼
🚜 Fun fact?
“I once popped a wheelie on a tractor!” 😂😂
🎲 Favorite things?
“Playing games, reading books, and hanging with my church family.”
🙏 What do you pray for Grace Point?
“That as God reveals Himself to us, we listen and are changed.”
And finally…
💙 Thinking about joining our church family?
Sara says it best:
“Come just as you are! God loves you and so do we!” 🥰
This is Grace Point — ordinary, imperfect, real people seeking a real God, growing together, serving together, and following Jesus together.
We’re so thankful for the Teodozows and the years they’ve poured into this church family. 💙
