Pastor, J. Jerome Johnson, Jr.

As your Senior Pastor, I would like to let you know how excited I am that you are considering membership at Mt. Gilead Church. Making the commitment to be “part of the family” will be a mutually beneficial experience! As you have been attending worship services and getting acquainted you have no doubt, witnessed the fact that God is blessing us. We believe this is a result of our sincere attempt to be a God-honoring church and that we are meeting the needs of His people. There is one thing we don’t want! Please do not think that membership is just another “ritual” in the church. We have no intention of you joining Mt. Gilead and then fading into inactive anonymity. Our desire is for each member to be active in ministry. Why do we want you to be an “active” member? Because we believe people bloom when they are serving God in the church in a positive and rewarding experience. I have seen hundreds and hundreds of people grow and bloom into the persons God intended them to be through services in the congregation. It enhances personal and spiritual growth when we serve each other “as unto the Lord.” I along with the entire leadership, desire to serve you too! My prayer is that as you join hands with the body of Christ at Mt. Gilead Church and as you allow the word of God to speak to your heart, we will together be transformed into the image of Christ Himself. Let me finish by saying “it’s great to be your pastor!

Love,

J. Jerome Johnson, Pastor
