Meet The Pastor
Senior Pastor Greg Gates
I moved to San Jose to pastor The Point Church in 2011. I moved here from Connecticut. I was born in Glendale CA and raised in Brasilia, Brazil. I went to college in San Diego at PLNU and seminary in Kansas City at NTS. While I have lived in many great places, Silicon Valley is by far my favorite. I love the attitude of the people here and the diversity of their backgrounds. I have met so many amazing people here. My hobbies are building websites for churches and SEO. I get to travel quite a bit but still have many more cities to visit around the world. I enjoy learning languages and painting. I enjoy reading biographies and books on leadership. I also enjoy history very much.
I pastor with the most amazing pastoral team ever. Our leadership deeply loves Jesus and they have committed their lives to knowing him and living authentic lives as open Christians. Every Sunday we guarantee you will have an encounter with God as your worship with us.
Because our neighborhood is so diverse, we offer church in 5 languages. We all meet at 10:30 AM on Sundays and each language has their own auditorium, preacher and music. We are one church in leadership and structure. All of our children and student ministries are together and our small groups and serving teams are all together too.
