New Ministry

Our church took a step out on faith and voted to sponsor a new seminary school for the churches of the American Baptist Association for our state and for this region of our nation. There are many fine schools in our work, two from which I have degrees. I appreciate the dedicated and devoted missionaries and pastors who have sowed the seeds for this vision and watered them through shared hearts and prayer. These men felt that LBC was the church that should sponsor this new work. I'm thankful for the people I pastor and their willingness to pray and then act to meeting the ministry opportunities that God presents to us. They have faithfully and devotedly prayed, worked, and evidenced God's working in our midst. Now comes the challenge and glorious opportunity to help instruct and train men to the work of ministry through missions planting and pastoral leadership. More will be said as this work begins to progress toward reality. Our desire and hope is that first and foremost God be glorified and secondly that men be trained as missionaries and pastors for new works in our state, our nation, and the impact of the school will reach internationally. We covet your prayers and support for this new work. If you would like to know more, please don't hesitate to give me a call.
