After being without a pastor for two years, as led by the Holy Spirit, the church called Rev. Barbara Lemon to serve as Pastor. She was installed on September 30, 2001. This was indeed a historical moment in this area as she became the first African American women to be called to Pastor an established Baptist Church. God has blessed us under her administration. The church has grown spiritually, numerically, and financially. Numerous new ministries have been developed and others revamped, for the continued growth of God's people.
