My Dear People,

I don't even know where to begin but to tell you that I am honored that God would allow me to be put in trust with such a fine group of people. Emmanuel Baptist Church is one of the great churches that God has built by His grace and for His glory. For all of my life, I've had a connection to this great place and ministry because of the faithful ministry of my uncle, Pastor Steve Wakefield. Having now been given the opportunity and privilege to pick up the sword and carry this ministry work forward, I am delighted to be your pastor. It is my heart's desire to be the best that I can be as a servant leader and though I may fail, always remember, Jesus never fails! At Emmanuel Baptist Church we will trust God, together grow, and take the gospel because God is with us. 

Love in Christ,
Jeremy P. Wakefield
