MEET OUR PASTORS

MATT & JACQUI LACEY

THE STORY OF FOUNTAIN CHURCH

We’ve been in full time ministry for 20 years and had previously served as Next Gen Pastors. Jacqui and I met in youth ministry and it was in those years that God birthed a passion to see young people come to the saving power of God. We have three beautiful girls - Olivia, Abigail and Hannah.

8 Years ago God began to give us the blueprint in our heart for Fountain but not knowing the details yet, we waited patiently. When the opportunity to pastor Fountain was presented, we knew it was God!

In the spring of 2014, Jacqui and I answered the call to become the Lead Pastors at Fountain Church. We started off with a handful of people, in a business center with a big dream to see God build a life-giving church in the Tri-Valley.

Our heart is that people would see, love and follow Jesus. We want the lost to come to know Him, the saved to grow in power and knowledge, and all of this done with the simplicity of the Gospel!

We believe in equipping and giving opportunities to people to shine in the gifts and talents that the Lord has given them. Simply put, we are a family who passionately loves Jesus and wants the world to know Him! We see life as an adventure to be had, and sharing the Gospel of Jesus to whomever the Lord places in their path.

We welcome you and truly pray that you find a home with us!

Beliefs

  • About the Bible

    • We believe that the scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the inspired Word of God and that men were moved by the Spirit of God to write the very words of Scripture. Therefore, we believe the Bible is without error.

  • About God

    • We believe in one personal God who exists eternally in three distinct persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, equal in power, authority and glory.

  • About Jesus

    • We believe Jesus Christ to be the virgin born Son of God who lived in flesh, died for the sins of the world, was buried, rose again bodily, and ascended to the Father.

  • About the Holy Spirit

    • We believe in the Holy Spirit who regenerates and indwells every believer in Jesus, assures us of our salvation, guides us into all truth, glorifies Jesus and convicts of sin, righteousness and judgment. He comforts us, gives us spiritual gifts, and empowers us for service.

  • About Mankind

    • We believe that all people were created in the image of God to have fellowship with him but became alienated in that relationship through sinful disobedience. As a result, people are incapable of regaining a right relationship with God through their own efforts.

  • About Salvation

    • We believe that the blood of Jesus Christ, shed on the cross, provides the only way for the forgiveness of sin. God freely offers salvation to those who place their faith in the death and resurrection of Christ as sufficient payment for their sin. Salvation cannot be earned, it is a gift from God.

  • About the Church

    • We believe in the universal church, the body of Christ, of which Jesus Christ is the head. The members of the church are those who have trusted by faith in the finished work of Christ. The purpose of the church is to glorify God by loving him, obeying Him and bringing the gospel to the world.

  • About Eternity

    • We believe in the personal, visible return of Christ to the earth and the establishing of His Kingdom, in the resurrection of the body, and the final judgment. We believe that our eternal destination of either heaven or hell is determined by our response to the Lord Jesus Christ.
