Mitch has served in ministry since 1988.  He has started a church and worked in the areas of outreach, small groups, assimilation, discipleship and … well, he’s pretty versatile.  That’s why we call him the associate pastor instead of giving him a particular title.

Mitch & his wife Kim both grew up on farms in northern Indiana.  They have been married since 1981 and have raised three great young adults, Ben, Hannah and Silas and have a great son in law Jared.

Marriage and family are very important to them. They enjoy mentoring younger married couples as well as individuals.   They actually had the same last name before they got married (no they were not related).

Mitch’s hobbies seem to include things with motors; airplane & powered parachute pilot, motorcycles, ATV’s…   He and Kim both enjoy reading and romantic movies.

Formerly an actor on the prestigious stage of Sight & Sound Theatre in Pennsylvania, Kerry and his wife, Alice, moved back to Fort Wayne to raise their three children:  Caiden (4), Reese (2) and baby Briella in his boyhood stomping grounds.

When he’s not leading worship or participating in a local theatrical production, Kerry enjoys P90X or taking late night jogs.

He’s also an avid fan of IU basketball, the Cubs, da-Bears, NASCAR and playing with his boys and Cairn Terrier “Peanut” in the family backyard.

Todd Mullins

Middle School Director

Todd.Mullins@ThePointeChurch.Com

Todd Mullins says the greatest achievement in his life is raising his son, Kodi, a son who prayed for his father to want to attend church. Because of Kodi’s faith, Todd says Kodi is the person who’s had the greatest influence on his life.

Todd loves spending time with his family and two Welsh Corgies, named Splinter and Sadie. If Todd were to describe himself, he would use words like witty, funny, happy, social, outgoing and athletic.

He believes his talents lie in two areas: making people laugh and coaching athletes. The dumbest thing Todd ever did was to fall out of a tree from about 30 feet high.

He says people would be surprised to know that he loves to cook, and enjoys both birds and flowers, especially gaillardia. Todd's coffee drink of choice is an iced mocha and his favorite snack food is chocolate covered raisins.

Kathy is a lifetime Fort Wayner. With a German mom and a Kentucky dad, Kathy proudly calls herself a German Hillbilly.

With a wide array of family, friends, and adorable cats (CJ and Opie),Kathy is always surrounded by love. (Her beautiful tiger cat JR is in heaven chaseing squirrels.)

At one time she thought she had enough family and friends but since starting at the Pointe her family has grown considerability as she now has many members of the church that she not only considers friends but family as well.

Kathy says her three fav TV shows are weird ( Matlock , Monk and Reba).  We agree. Definitely weird.

Kathy came to faith in Christ at The Pointe and is the person to know if you need things done.
