Landon Churchill

Vision & Preaching Pastor

Pastor Landon Churchill has been involved in ministry for nearly three decades and currently serves as the lead pastor of Freedom Fellowship Church in Kaukauna, WI—a church he helped found in 2007. Alongside his wife Sunny and their three children, Pastor Landon resides in Kaukauna and continues to be a faithful servant in both the church and the community.
 

In addition to his pastoral role, he helps oversee the Freedom Center Food Pantry in Appleton, WI, actively serves with the Fox Valley Jail Ministry, and ministers regularly in local assisted living homes. Pastor Landon has a deep passion to see the Church at large across the Fox Valley unite in Christ and work together to impact the region for the Kingdom of God.
 

A graduate of Calvary Chapel Bible College Europe in 2001, Pastor Landon is committed to teaching the full counsel of God through verse-by-verse study of the Bible. His teaching style emphasizes practical application, real-life relevance, and spiritual depth—making the Word of God both accessible and challenging for people of all ages. Over the years, his influence has steadily grown, marked by a clear devotion to truth, discipleship, and community transformation.

To the elders among you, I appeal as a fellow elder and a witness of Christ’s sufferings who also will share in the glory to be revealed: Be shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, watching over them—not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not pursuing dishonest gain, but eager to serve; not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock. And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that will never fade away. 1 Peter 5:1-4
