Pastor Mitchell Crittenden grew up in South Carolina and was saved at the age of 10. He surrendered to preach four years later at a teen camp in the summer. He attended Bible College in Lancaster, CA where he met his wife Alexa. It was also here that the Lord really began to impress upon his heart the need for churches in the west. Shortly after graduating, Mitchell and Alexa were married and served an internship at North Valley Baptist Church in Phoenix, AZ.

The Crittendens served with Pastor Brent Loveless and the church family for four years. In the fall of 2016 they were sent out of North Valley Baptist Church to prepare and plant a church about 25 miles north in Desert Hills, AZ. The Crittendens have been married since 2013 and have three children: Aislynn, Zander, and Pearce.
