Dear Church Leader and Friend,
We would like to welcome Mike Nalley to our Associational Team. Mike is replacing Evan Knies who has moved back home to Louisiana. Mike will begin serving officially as our Ministry Assistant in January. He is currently on board and going through some training.

Mike is no stranger to most of you since he is already serving in our Association as Pastor of Mt Carmel Baptist Church and in various ministry roles in our Association. You can contact Mike at the following email address: (nelsonbaptistassociation@gmail.com), through the Association office (502-348-0146), or on his cell phone (502-296-6462). We know that he would love to hear from you and to serve in anyway he can.

We would also like to wish you a Merry Christmas and to express our deepest appreciation and gratitude for your support and faithful partnership in the Gospel of Jesus Christ!

May God be Glorified as we begin this new season in our Association!
