Pastor Luther Harmon
A Tennessee native, Harmon graduated with a degree in Christian studies from North Greenville University then served churches in the Lexington area. He went on to New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary to begin his Minister of Divinity studies and continued in youth ministry prior to serving as pastor of Earlewood Baptist Church in Columbia. Harmon and his wife Katie, currently a teacher at White Knoll Elementary School in Lexington, have two sons – seven-year-old Knox and Landon who is four. The active family enjoys spending time together on the water in local rivers and lakes, playing ball outside and traveling to the beach or mountains.
Kids for Christ
Youth at Union Baptist learn about Jesus through fellowship, engaging activities and service. The future is as bright as God’s promises.
Loving the Community
OUR GOAL
To provide a place where the depressed, the hurting and the hopeless can come and find help. To be a place of community, hope, love and worship.
OUR PLAN
To welcome the community with open arms. To disciple people who are passionate about living out God’s purpose for their lives. To give disciples a channel for reaching one more by serving and sharing the love of Jesus Christ through local and global missions.
OUR FUTURE
To continue our relentless pursuit to reach one more for Jesus by living the gospel in my home, by loving one more in my neighborhood and by sending one more to the ends of the earth to share the hope of Jesus Christ.
