Ministerial Staff
Pastor Larry Green, Sr., M.Ed.
Pastor Since
August 1993
Personal Mission Statement
2 Timothy 2:15 Give diligence to present thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, handling aright the word of truth. It is my desire to seek and to serve the Lord as I lead the people of God into a closer relationship with Him through the study of His WORD. Additionally, I desire to seek and pray for the peace of our city. This desire is rooted in Jeremiah 29:7 “And seek the peace of the city whither I have caused you to be carried away captive, and pray unto Jehovah for it; for in the peace thereof shall ye have peace. My priorities of ministry, which have been stated repeatedly and demonstrated consistently are 1) teaching people to passionately love God with all their heart, soul and mind; 2) emphasizing close and loving family relationships; 3) developing a heart for local and world evangelism; and 4) training the next generation to love and serve God.
