Greenwell Springs Baptist Church will introduce their new full-time Senior Pastor. After nearly a year without a full-time Senior Pastor, Transtional Pastor Tony Perkins, the staff, elders, and Pastor Search Team welcome Dr. Jeff Meyers.
Pastor Jeff Meyers comes to Greenwell Springs from Conyers, Georgia (East Atlanta). He is a man who is in a word – passionate. He is passionate about his personal faith in Jesus Christ, his wife Traci and their three boys, as well as his calling to be the Senior Pastor of a local church. The Meyers family originated in Texas, but has migrated to Mississippi, Georgia, and now the great state of Louisiana. Traci is fond of saying, “Life with Jeff is never dull.”
At the age of fourteen, God called Jeff into vocational ministry. At age seventeen, he publicly accepted his call into ministry. This faith-based call led him to Baylor University to pursue a B. A. in Religious Studies. He followed this training with a Master of Divinity with Biblical Languages and a Doctorate of Philosophy from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas. His 22 years of experience in various ministerial roles include: youth ministry, recreation ministry, associate pastor, teaching pastor, vocational evangelist, and senior pastor. Jeff’s ministerial passion lies in studying and teaching the word of God and allowing God to communicate His truths in an in-depth yet relevant manner.
Pastor Jeff will preach his first message on Sunday morning August 11, 2013 at 10:30 am. He will also preach in the evening service at 6 pm. There will be a special installation service on August 18, 2013 at 6 pm conducted by Dr. Tommy Middleton, Director of Missions for the Baptist Association of Greater Baton Rouge, and Tony Perkins, Transitional Pastor and President of the Family Research Council. Greenwell Springs Baptist Church is located at 19421 Greenwell Springs Rd, Greenwell Springs, LA. For more information, call 225-261-2246 or log on to www.gsbcla.com.
