Ministry Staff

 

Pastor Jeremy Champion, Senior Pastor

Jeremy began serving Trinity Baptist Church in November, 2018.  Prior to serving at Trinity Baptist he served churches in Missouri, Illinois, Florida and Connecticut.  Since a child, Jeremy developed a love for music and serving in his local church.  It was during his late adolescent years that Jeremy felt the Lord leading him into vocational ministry.  As such, he attended and graduated from Missouri Baptist University with a Bachelor of Music degree in Church Music (piano emphasis).  While attending MoBap, Jeremy met his wife, Mechelle.  Soon after graduation the two were married and began serving together in ministry.  Feeling led to continue his studies in worship, Jeremy completed his Master of Arts degree in Worship Studies (leadership concentration) from Liberty University.
While Jeremy loves the role God has given him in ministry, it is his role as a daddy that gives him his greatest joy.  Jeremy and Mechelle have four children: Riley, 18; Parker, 16; Bailey, 15; and Logan Dean, 14.  They love to do things as a family and enjoy the smaller things in life, such as watching movies together, going to the beach, and going to Universal, but are thrilled to be a part of God’s bigger picture as they serve as a family here at Trinity.
