Our V​ision​

  All over America, almost four thousand churches are closing their doors every year. Included in these statistics are a number of Independent Baptist Churches. These churches support missions, have missions conferences, revivals, Vacation Bible School and other ministries. All of these things may go by the wayside if these churches close. Our goal is to rescue some of these Independent Baptist churches. Many churches have problems when their pastor suddenly dies, unexpectedly resigns, or retires. Many pastors leave shortly after their resignation, and this can give an open door for Satan to come in and destroy the church. Our ministry would consist of coming in to stabilize the church, to bring a sense of calmness to the church, to hopefully keep members from straying away, to nurture the church, to urge the congregation to pray for God to send them the right pastor, and to give the church some hope while searching for a pastor.

Advantages of This ​Ministry

As a veteran pastor, our purpose is to rescue churches in need of a pastor. We can stand in the gap to prepare for a smooth transition for the incoming pastor. Many of these churches will already have property, buildings, and a missionary program. If we can rescue these churches, a pastor can start with a congregation and facilities which will save much time and expense instead of starting a new church. For a pastor looking to start a church, it will save time in finding a place to meet, finding property on which to build, and the problems of a building program. It will save our established churches money with which they can do more for the Lord in their missionary endeavors.
