Welcome to the Mercer-Thomas Baptist Network!

I have served more than thirty-six years as pastor of six churches, one each in Texas, California, and Wisconsin, and three in Florida. I am blessed to serve as Associational Mission Strategist for Mercer and Thomas County Baptist Associations, having begun August 1, 2019. My life verse is John 15:16, in which Jesus says, “You did not choose Me, but I chose you. I appointed you that you should go out and produce fruit and that your fruit should remain so that whatever you ask the Father in My name, He will give you.” (HCSB)

Who We Are

We are a family of churches serving the living Lord in Brooks County and Thomas County—in Brooks County through the Mercer Baptist Association and in Thomas County through the Thomas County Baptist. The Mercer-Thomas Baptist Network exists to assist our affiliated churches in fulfilling their purpose and mission as local expressions of the Body of Jesus Christ. Their purpose and mission is making Jesus Christ—his love, his invitation, and the life he offers—known throughout our communities and region.
