Where we came from:

Lifepoint Church began as Church Plant in January 2005 from Longview Point Baptist Church in Hernando, MS. The leadership and vision of Longview Point believed in expanding God's Kingdom through giving away; and Church Planting was part of that belief. Soon after the official decision to plant a Church in Senatobia, Colonial Hills Church in Southaven and Longview Height Baptist Church in Olive Branch joined in and became partners in this new work. We had over 150 present in our first informational meeting January 17th, 2005, and knew that we needed to move forward immediately with a Church launch timeline. After eight weeks of core group training and numerous community canvassing events; Lifepoint Church launched Easter Sunday March 27, 2005 at the Gym of Magnolia Heights. In April we were able to purchase the Funland Skating facility and land located on Scott Street; this was exactly what we had been praying for, 15 acres located near the interstate. Our new members immediately began renovation and cleaning and in a matter of weeks we were able to move from the gym to our new location. We had our first service at "Funland" May 2 of 2005.
