Your Pastors:


John R Martinez and Felicitas (Chita) Martinez




Jesus, my savior!!! February 1981, Jesus Christ came into my heart and is continually molding me to HIS image. In spite of all my defects and faults, HE loves me, oh how HE loves me!! My lovely, wife, Felicitas "Chita" Martinez, my High School Sweetheart, and I have been married since 1971!! God is Good


Amazed at what God has done in my life. Never in a million years, did I think I would one day, I would be an Ordained Minister of the Assemblies of God a General District Presbyter of the Southwest District Council of the Assemblies of God, and Senior Pastor of New Beginnings Assembly of God. I just love our Lord Jesus Christ, His mercy, compassion, and forgiveness are beyond words can not describe. !

I am humbled by his never-failing love and allowing me to be His servant.


And as for my wife, Felicitas "Chita" Martinez, known by the church as "Pastora Chita"; she has worked with Girls Ministries ( FKA Missionettes) for over 30 years at the local, sectional, and district levels. 

She received her ordination on July 13, 2016, at our Southwest District Council. She remains very active in the church helping her husband, in all areas. Such as preaching, the nursery, Girls Ministry, Women Ministry, Prayer Ministry (Has a very passionate heart and spirit for prayer) and she has indeed a true servant's heart!

Praise and Worship Director


Veronica Santa Cruz

Hello! , My name is Veronica Santa Cruz. I am the Director for New Beginnings Praise and Worship Team. I’ve been going to church since I was born, but truly dedicated my life to Christ my freshman year in high school. I am happily married and I was blessed with 2 step-children. 

I’ve been singing since I was able to talk, and found my love and passion in Praise and Worship Ministry.I am very grateful and blessed to be part of New Beginnings Praise and Worship Team. We have come a long way and continue to grow each day and most of all grow as a team together. I am beyond proud of our group and look forward to God’s anointing to flow as we help usher in his presence at each service. 

My prayer is that I be used by him with my voice and my service to him as a Director. That his presence flows in me as an instrument he has created. I hope that each member and our church experience and encounter Gods presence through Praise and Worship because ultimately it is all about him and not us.
