Our Pastor

A group of people once came up to Philip, one of Jesus' disciples, and said, "Sir, we would like to see Jesus" (John 12:21). That is a request I think about often. That is a request I take very seriously. It is my goal as the pastor of Faith to fulfill that request each and every week - to show you Jesus. He is the one who gives life and life to the full (John 10:10). If you are new to the area or looking for a church home, I invite you to come and see Jesus here at Faith!
