Santes Beatty

Director of Next Gen Multiplication & Discipleship

Santes Beatty has about 25 years of ministry and leadership experience in Next Gen spaces. He became part of the Wesleyan Church in 2010 when he and his wife Nicole joined the staff of Kentwood Community Church in Michigan where he served as their High School Pastor and a part of the Teaching Team.  This came after serving twelve years as a Children, Youth and Young Adult Pastor and bi-vocational college administrator in the Triad area of North Carolina. Part of his passion is seeing revival come through a commitment to prayer and fasting; first in families and then in local churches that will spark a global movement. Santes builds on the work of previous directors by helping leaders have presence-driven, values-focused ministries that reach diverse families and communities. He has a Masters of Ministry Leadership with a focus on Youth Ministry from Huntington University in Indiana and has been ordained as both a Wesleyan and Baptist minister. He continues to serve locally as the Student Pastor of ONE Church in High Point, NC, but also serves nationally as the Director of Regional Conferences and Curriculum for Mosaix Global Network and is a Executive Coaching Consultant and Speaker for Second Chair Solutions. In all these roles he helps to equip and resource leaders, their churches, universities and organizations to see them reach their full potential. Prior to these roles he served as Lead Pastor of Mosaic Midtown in Detroit for three years and Director of Multiethnic Ministries for The Wesleyan Church for six years. He is an itinerant speaker for Fuller Youth Institute and an instructor for Kingswood Extended, a ministerial credentialing arm of the Wesleyan Church that is housed at Kingswood University in Canada.

Santes is a native of Raeford, N.C., but currently resides in Greensboro with his wife Nicole. They have five children: Tesia, Christian, Josiah, Serenity and Sarah as well as a granddaughter, Nalani. They also have a fur baby named Cami (their Golden Retriever).
