Where do I begin?
Churches are built by ordinary people who say "yes" to an extraordinary calling. We're looking for people with a pioneering spirit who believe God is doing something special in Flagstaff and want to help lay the foundation of Waypoint Church from the very beginning.
Whether you'd like to be a part through praying, giving, or joining the Launch Team, a great starting point is to attend a Vision Gathering when the next opportunity is available in November. Attendance does not require a commitment, but is an opportunity to learn more, ask questions, and prayerfully consider if God is inviting you to be a part of Waypoint.
Until then, contact us with any thoughts or questions you may have.

Launch Team
Options
1. Weekend Team
Serve on the launch team by traveling to Flagstaff on select weekends. You'll help create an unforgettable Sunday experience through setup, hospitality, kids ministry, production, prayer, and more. We'll gather together for dinner on Saturday evenings before serving on Sunday mornings. Housing may be available for some weekends as we get closer to launch, but we encourage volunteers to plan on arranging their own accommodations.
2. PIONEER Team
Some people are called to do more than visit - they're called to stay. If you feel God leading you to make Flagstaff home, we'd love to walk alongside you. Whether you're transferring jobs, attending NAU, working remotely, or simply looking for a fresh start, we'd love to help you explore what joining the founding team could look like. If possible, we're asking those who relocate to commit to serving with the launch team through Waypoint's first year.
