Senior Pastors/Elders
In 1984, Senior Pastor Johnny Cook and his wife laid the foundation of our church, and in 1992, they expanded it with the fellowship hall. Their journey began in 1977 after working in a children's home, when they answered the call to come to Ruskin, laying the groundwork for our community's spiritual home.
Services started out of a mobile home in 1978, and they welcomed their first converts just a month later, two young men from the neighborhood, sent by their mother to see what the fuss was about.
It's a story of dedication, faith, and the transformative power of community.
