PASTORS AND THEIR YEARS OF SERVICE
Even after the turn of the century, ministers did not serve for long periods of time. But their faith was strong and as the church began to grow that same faith saw them through a fire that destroyed their church. The following years of tremendous growth brought their own set of challenges. Through all the years, we have been led by pastors with great faith and vision. We thank God for each of them.
