The Youth Pastor Search Committee has interviewed a candidate for the position of Youth Pastor. His name is Eric Kendall who is a WVU graduate and a current seminary student. He is working toward attaining a Master of Divinity Degree through Palmer Theological Seminary.

Eric is 25 years old and married. To be so young, he has acquired an extensive amount of experience in the ministry field. He has spent countless hours working with youth as a counselor at Camp Cowen and as Volunteer Youth Intern at Simpson Creek Baptist Church in Bridgeport. 

At Simpson Creek Baptist Church, he has worked closely with the youth pastor to develop programs and events for youth. He has also taught Sunday School as well as Sunday evening Bible studies. Eric has helped evaluate potential new curriculum for youth Sunday School programming. He comes with outstanding references and is highly qualified for this position.

Eric and his wife were here at FBC on Sunday evening, February 26, to give members the opportunity to meet him and ask any questions on their minds. His employment will be voted on at the next business meeting scheduled for March 7. All members are encouraged to attend this very important meeting in the life of our church.
