breakfast heroes
be a breakfast hero! | Individuals & life groups
Many Sundays throughout the year our Production Teams put in 8-10 hours on a Sunday serving the Church and many arrive at 6:30a! We want to bless them with a hot breakfast while they serve! If you or your Life Group would be willing to provide breakfast right before the 9a service begins, you’d be a hero!

staff spotlight
ASHTON GIOVINETTI | FACILITIES
Hey! I’m Ashton Giovinetti. I’ve been married to my beautiful wife, Andrea, for four years, and we have a one-year-old son named Jax. We became members of Harris Creek in 2022. Over the past year, I had the incredible opportunity to serve as a resident at Harris Creek, and as of May 5, 2025, I’m honored to now be on full-time staff with our amazing facilities team. I grew up in San Diego, CA (Go Padres!) where I watched my parents faithfully serve in full-time ministry. Their example had a huge impact on me. After getting married in 2021, Andrea and I moved to Waco to build our life together. Though the weather is definitely different from sunny San Diego, we are so thankful for the home and community God has provided here. I’m passionate about the Gospel, the Padres, and serving with our facilities team as we steward the building God has entrusted to us. I’ve been deeply blessed by this local expression of the Church, and I hope to continue being a part of blessing others through this place.
