Pastor Chris & Vanessa arrived in Lathrop in 2013 to join the team here at Home Church (formerly known as Thrive Church). Over the past 11 years, God has grown our church into a vibrant, powerful, and life-giving church with a vision to continue seeing more cities and people in northern California experience Jesus. In 2022, Pastor Chris stepped into the role of lead pastor, succeeding Pastor Eric Baca who led Thrive Church for 17 years. Home Church's mission is to be a home for Jesus' presence individually and collectively, to be a place for a spiritual family that creates a legacy, and to be a space for the prodigal locally and globally.
