Meet Our Pastor
Meet our Pastor, Matt Harris, and his wife Mallory, daughters Nora, Annemarie, Jane and son Charlie.
Matt and Mallory were married in 2014 and have since welcomed four children: Nora, Annemarie, Charlie, and Jane. Before moving to Sparta, NC in October 2021, Matt served for 6 years as the Student Pastor at Parkwood Baptist Church in Gastonia, NC. He is currently in the process of completing his Masters of Divinity in Preaching and Pastoral Ministry from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, and he is excited to see the gospel take root and grow in this church and in this community.

Sunday's Sermon
“Proclaim the Lord’s greatness with me; let us exalt His name together.” – Psalm 34:3
This summer, kids are invited to take a closer look at God’s amazing world and proclaim His greatness! During Magnified! VBS, children will learn that God made us, cares for us, loves us, forgives us, and is always faithful to His promises. Through engaging Bible lessons, fun activities, and meaningful worship, we’ll discover how we were made to magnify God together!
