Pastors Rick & Donna Moncrief
Pastor Rick accepted the Lord as his Savior May 1, 1979. He soon felt the call of God on his life to preach and reach out to all people. For 27 years, Pastor Rick has served
in several different ministries including as a Youth Pastor and an Associate Pastor. Pastor Rick graduated from River of Life Bible College with a BA degree in Ministerial Studies.
Pastor Donna grew up in a strong church atmosphere. She felt the call of God in her life at an early age. Music has always been her passion. With a strong background in music and song, Pastor Donna leads the congregation into the presence of the Lord through Praise and Worship.
In December 1981, Rick and Donna married and began evangelizing and working in 
the local church. In October of 2000, God placed the calling upon them to plant a church in Jackson, Georgia to reach the untouched, the hurting, and broken people in this community and beyond. Pastor Rick has a heart for the lost and for those who feel intimidated by the traditional church.
Pastor Rick and Donna have been married for 27 years and live in Flovilla, Georgia. They have 3 beautiful daughters, - Hannah, Katlyn and Olivia. Their greatest passion has been to be the best parents and role models they can be for their family.
