Grace Baptist Church - Bastrop, LA

Erin & I will be moving to Bastrop where I will begin as pastor on Sunday, January 4th. Last weekend we accepted the call & this morning announced my resignation here at Central Baptist. We're sad to leave a church full of people we love, but we're also excited about the ministry opportunity God has given us. Grace Baptist Church began 7 years ago in a home w/ only a few couples & has now grown to a membership of about 350 in that time. They have had 2 pastors in their history & I will be the 3rd. They recently moved into a new building w/ a completed children's wing & an adult/administration wing yet to be complete.

This opportunity is a true blessing as we feel completely confident this is where God wants us to be. The church is predominantly younger adults with an abundance of children. We love our church here & the people we've grown to love will be hard to say good-bye to, but their love & support in making this transition shows how great of a church we're having to leave. Please pray for us as we finish the year here before moving to LA. Here are a few pics we took last weekend.
