Deacons
Alfred Branim"Blessed beyond measure. Saved at the age of 16 during an old fashion revival where I was convicted of my sins and trusted Jesus as my Lord and savior. Since that time the Lord has blessed me serve him in the capacity of a Choir Director and Deacon within the Church. Blessed with a great family and great Church family that loves the Lord as well. Blessed beyond measure."

Doyle Haynes"I was saved at a young age, but I've always felt the presence of the Lord - that He's watching over and taking care of me. His word is faithful and true. I was baptized at 22 years old when I married my wife Cheryl. Being obedient to baptism was the first step to really embracing my faith and beginning to grow in the Lord. I was ordained as a deacon at Fairview Baptist Church and have served in that role at Fairview, Mossy Grove, and now First Baptist Church. I have worked with youth, taught Sunday School, along with many other positions in the local church. I just love the Lord, and my hope is that everyone would come to know Him as Lord and Savior."

Jamie Pemberton"I was saved in my early 20s while at home watching a Billy Graham Crusade on television. The Holy Spirit had been speaking to my heart for a while and when Reverend Graham invited those at home watching that night to kneel to ask God into their hearts, I did so in my living room floor. Not long after that, I began dating the young lady who is now my wife, Susanne. We started attending Wartburg First Baptist Church in the spring of 1997. Pastor Tom Mooty and the congregation made us feel so loved and welcomed that we decided to stay, and we have been there ever since. Since then, we have been blessed with two children, Jayden and Jordyn who have both accepted Jesus Christ as their Savior. I began serving as a deacon at the church in 2007."

George Wright"I accepted Christ Jesus as my Savior at a young age. After many years of following Him, I was ordained as a deacon in 2006. I later joined First Baptist Church of Wartburg in 2012 and have served as a deacon here since 2013."
