Well, what a privilege it is to serve here at Union City Baptist. I am truly blessed to be your pastor, and I take very seriously serving the Lord here. As many know my family and I are still settling in here and getting used to everyone's name and learning the community. As I serve you and your family, please let me know if I can encourage you in your spiritual journey with the Lord, I love His work and His people and I’m here to help you in any way I possibly can under His mighty name.

I have been amazed at how well everyone comes together and supports this wonderful church. I’ve watched and witnessed a spiritual desire to serve Him through this church, and everyone has been very responsive and I thank you for that and our warm reception to come along beside you and also serve.

This is a very busy time of the year (December) please don’t get too busy that we slip in knowing what Christmas is really all about, The birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I have a passion to preach and serve.

I look forward to serving here many years ‘As many as God will allow’ as your pastor. God Bless all and have a Very Merry Christmas and check out our up-coming activities with ‘Children’s Christmas Play on Sunday, December 21st at 6:00 and light fellowship to follow. Until next time let me encourage you with God’s word to follow and my favorite scripture!

Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

Pastor Dr. Michael G. Barnes
