About us

Meet our pastor
Meet Our Pastor:
Hello, my name is Jeff Minniear and I'm a Continental Baptist Missions missionary. My wife Deb & I have served in church planting and revitalization work with CBM for 37 years. In June 2022 Colon Baptist Church asked us to reinvigorate the church family and help the church reach and disciple new folk.
​
We've seen a growth in attendance and membership. We have also seen precious brothers and sisters step into glory.
​
Jesus said we are to love the Lord with all of our heart, soul, MIND, and strength. We take seriously knowing and loving the Lord with all of our mind so that we can remember the Bible and think through our problem-solving decisions in a way that honors Jesus with the way we live.
