Beacon Circle was created to offer young people an additional place of support, encouragement, and community — a warm, faith-rooted space where they can connect, share, and grow. As a blended family that has walked through challenges, healing, and growth, we’ve come to deeply appreciate the value of spaces that nurture confidence, connection, and grounded faith. Those experiences inspired us to help create a welcoming environment where teens can gather and simply feel uplifted.
Our community is blessed with wonderful churches and strong families, and Beacon Circle is not meant to replace religion or church. Instead, it offers something complementary, a real-world setting where young people can talk openly, build confidence, and be gently reminded that God is present in their everyday lives. Not formal or overwhelming, just honest, warm, and rooted in love.
Rey brings a quiet, steady strength and a genuine heart for serving others. He learned later in life, through experience, faith, and a lot of growth, the importance of patience, humility, and showing up for the people you love.
With a natural passion for coaching and supporting others, Rey approaches life with calm confidence and a grounded, thoughtful spirit. His hope for Beacon Circle is simple: to help create a space where young people can feel supported, encouraged, and rooted in faith, the kind of environment he believes every child deserves. Rey is grateful to walk this journey and is committed to serving however God leads.
Maria helped spark the idea for Beacon Circle through her own journey of resilience, faith, and growing up faster than she ever expected. She had a loving foundation, but losing both of her parents at a young age brought challenges that shaped her strength, compassion, and the way she shows up for others today.
A wife, mom, and community leader, Maria naturally steps into places where encouragement and support matter. Her experiences, the loss, the healing, and the courage it took to rebuild, quietly inspired the start of Beacon Circle.
She leads with empathy, creativity, and grounded faith, hoping this space becomes a warm, welcoming place where young people feel supported, valued, and connected to their God-given potential.
Logan is a grounded, thoughtful, and caring young man who brings a steady, calming presence to everyone around him. As a member of the National Junior Honor Society at Candlewood, he leads with kindness, integrity, and quiet confidence.
He loves volleyball, skiing, and traveling, and he approaches life with curiosity and a willingness to try new things. Logan’s character, steady, responsible, and compassionate, reflects the values at the heart of Beacon Circle and reminds us why creating spaces of support and encouragement for teens matters so much.
Liam is an empathetic, creative, and joy-filled young man who brings brightness wherever he goes. Wise beyond his years yet full of fun, he has a natural ability to make people feel understood and included.
He loves yo-yoing, basketball, drawing, building, and anything that lets his imagination take the lead. Liam’s big heart, curiosity, and creativity reflect the spirit behind Beacon Circle, a reminder that every young person has unique gifts waiting to shine.
Together - Maria, Rey, Logan, and Liam -
we each bring our own experiences, strengths, and hearts for serving others. As a blended family, we know how meaningful it is to create a place where every young person feels seen, valued, and supported.
Our hope is simple: that Beacon Circle becomes a steady, encouraging space where teens can connect, find friends with similar values, and feel uplifted in a positive, faith-rooted community.
