On December 16, 2018, the membership of First Baptist Church extended a call to Jerry Birkholz to serve our congregation as a permanent, full-time pastor. On December 23, Jerry and his wife, Beth, accepted the call and, as you can read in his acceptance letter posted below, “count it an honor to serve the LORD…in His gospel work.”
