Meet Our Team

All of our pastors, staff, and leaders have one common goal: growing healthy followers of Jesus by increasing Biblical literacy and obedience. In order to serve you best, we want to get to know you, and we think it is important for you to get to know us. Church must be more than a place you go; it has to become a people you are a part of. Genuine community and relationships are a huge part of what a church really is.

Peter & Beth Hackett

Kids Ministry & Security Team

Peter and Beth Hackett serve in two different teams Redemption Calvary: Beth oversees the Kids Ministry and Peter oversees the Security Team.

Peter moved around a lot as a kid and joined the Air Force as a young adult, but New Jersey was always his home. Beth was born and raised in New Jersey. They relocated to Colorado in 2019 and chose Redemption as their church home in September 2020, primarily due to a shared vision for verse by verse preaching.

Peter became a Christian later in life, at the age of 48—radically transformed by the love of God. Beth became a Christian as a teen, but struggled with the Lordship of Jesus until she finally surrendered completely in her mid 30s.

Peter and Beth have a desire to be a living tribute of God’s grace and love while helping others find their own passion to serve Jesus.

"My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing."

James 1:2-4

“Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart.”

Psalm 37:4
