Redemption Point, planted in 2010, is a church near the heart of Little Saigon in Orange County, California. We are targeting the un-reached population of English-speaking 2nd-generation children of Asian immigrants (predominantly Vietnamese). The church plant averages 150 in attendance (including kids) and has a strong Gospel-centered leaning. We own no building and worship on Sunday evening at a rented facility. At this point, we are looking for an Assistant Pastor to help our Lead Pastor serve the church in student ministry.
