Pastoral Leadership
1956 - 1986 || 1998 - 1999
The Rev. John W. Laney, a native of North Carolina and graduate of Maryville College and Crozer Theological Seminary led the church from its founding until his resignation in November 1986.
Rev. Laney returned in January 1998 to serve as interim pastor for a year while the church continued its search for a full-time pastor. This search culminated in the call of our current pastor, the Rev. Kip Ingram, in December 1999.
On June 13, 1999, Rev. John Laney was officially celebrated as our Pastor Emeritus.
