CHURCH ELDER, Greg Harrell
Born in Las Cruces, New Mexico, Greg Harrell grew up and graduated from high school in Cloudcroft, NM before going to the U. S. Coast Guard Academy. After establishing a railroad career, Greg and his wife Marietta began their own business in 2001, which continues to successfully serve the rail industry.
Upon joining our congregation in worship for the first time at the end of 2001, the Harrell's jumped right in to help with our construction project. After the initial construction was completed, they began serving in more spiritual ways by using their home for verse by verse Bible studies and young adult ministry. They have served in other ministries within and outside of our congregation. Greg and Marietta continue to help strengthen and repair marriages and prepare newly engaged couples for their own solid Biblically-based marriage with the course they have written called, A Cord of Three Strands.
In 2008, Greg was ordained here as an Elder, a role in which he continues to serve faithfully.
In his free time, Greg enjoys spending time with Marietta over-landing, traveling in their RV and on their ranch hiking and working with cattle. The Harrell's have been married for over 30 years.
Marietta serves faithfully as Greg's business partner and as an Elder's wife here at Generations. She is a creative writer with an ear to hear and deliver encouraging words in season.
SENIOR PASTOR - Alan Latta
A year after meeting Yvette Selbin there, they married and moved to Houston, Texas; where they started their own family and Alan completed his B. A. in Theology. Moving to the DFW area and then Granbury, their two children - Summer and Zane - were blessed to grow up in Hood County. They are now both married and have wonderful children of their own.

CHILDREN'S PASTOR - Katie Beauchamp
Katie Beauchamp was born in Orlando, Florida and graduated from Boone High School in 1996. After graduating, she enlisted in the United States Marine Corps where she served as a helicopter avionics technician for 5 years at Camp Pendleton, California. While on active duty, Katie faithfully attended Calvary Chapel Fallbrook.
Later, while deployed in Okinawa, Katie met her husband Mike (also a Marine). After marrying in 2003, they received military orders to serve in Pensacola, Florida; where they started their family and Katie worked on her undergraduate degree in Exercise Science from the University of West Florida; which she completed in 2006.
Upon returning to California in 2007, Katie and Mike spent another 8 years there; where they faithfully attended Calvary Chapel Bible Fellowship in Temecula.
Katie and Mike began attending Generations Church in 2017; while living in Saginaw as their home was being built in Granbury. In 2019, Katie and Mike proudly moved in and called Granbury their home.
They have 3 wonderful children, Preston, Sarah, and Jonah; whom Katie diligently homeschooled for 7 years; while bringing the life and love of Jesus to her children every day. She also spent many years as an active participant in the Christian Homeschool Community.
Katie was officially ordained as the Children’s Pastor of Generations Church of Granbury on Mother’s Day, 2022. She considers sharing the love of Jesus with children the biggest honor and most important task of her life.
Mike also serves in the Children’s Ministry alongside Katie and they have opened their home for Men’s Fellowships as well. After 30 years of service, Mike retired from the Marine Corps in 2020.
The Beauchamp's enjoy spending free time with their children, playing on the water and working outdoors tending to the land, a garden, and some feisty chickens.
