From the Heart
Three years ago this month, Santuck Baptist Church called me to be the Senior Pastor. Charlene and I prayed about this step
and felt the leading of God to plant our lives with this awesome church family. While every move and new situation requires adjustments, you were patient, praying, and supportive as we began this journey together.
Looking back over these three years I can see God’s hand in many ways. As a visionary type leader I am more so looking into
the future, and we are poised for a tremendous future! Right now we have a very challenging vision in which we are currently implementing. We own an additional 67 acres for future growth. More importantly, we are moving deeper into being a house of prayer. Many are
walking deeper with the Lord than ever before. Our worship is not only energetic but also very passionate. We are centered on the Word
of God. Ministries are growing, people are serving, and the church is growing!
Are we perfect? NO! We have many challenges before us—opportunities that are exciting. We are focused on a strong steady
growth of coming and serving. We also have the challenge before us to pay off the new land. With God’s people’s faithfulness, I know
this can be done very quickly. God’s vision always involves God’s people serving. God works in and through us to do what only He can
do. Our call is to do “whatever it takes to fully please Jesus.” Santuck is an area-wide church. The effects of our ministry moves way
beyond our community. That is very exciting!
While many evaluate a church based on size and attendance, we are much more focused on becoming disciples. Jesus’ call is
to become disciples not just draw a crowd. We are to be a “sending” church not “seating” church. Our mission statement says it this
way: “Santuck Baptist Church is a Family of Families Following and Making Follower of Christ.”
I am so grateful for everyone that is on this journey together. Let’s keep our eyes looking forward, our knees at the altar, and
our feet carrying the gospel to the world! God gets all the glory for the great things He will do as well as what He has already done! It is a
joy and privilege to be your pastor!
From the Heart,
