BLAKE NANCE
PASTOR
Blake was raised in Ozark, Alabama and is a 2005 Graduate of Southeastern Free Will Baptist College. From there, he served as a Youth Pastor in Rockingham, North Carolina for three years. Blake was then called to help start a Free Will Baptist Church in Mobile, Alabama where he has served as Youth Minister since 2008. In November of 2014, he answered God's call to serve as Pastor of Beulah Free Will Baptist Church. Pastor Blake is a dynamic pastor and preaches the Bible, challenging his congregation with each sermon. Since Blake became Pastor, the church has seen growth and faithful church attendance on Sundays and Wednesdays. Because of this, plans to expand the Sanctuary and add a gym are underway.
LERON BUSH
TEEN PASTOR & WORSHIP LEADER
Leron has been the Youth Pastor for over 10 years now. He leads teens each Wednesday night in getting into a deeper relationship with God. Every Sunday morning, he leads the music portion of the service. He and his wife, Tori, have two beautiful children- Emmy Dee and Theo. Tori has been a great help alongside him. With her planning and organizational skills, she helps him with numerous events in and outside of the church. Their goal is the same: to reach the students in our community, to see God work through the students, and to connect students with the church.
CONNOR MANN
CHILDREN'S & OPERATIONS PASTOR
Connor's journey with faith began at Beulah, where he was born and raised. At the age of 8, during church camp, he accepted Christ into his life. It wasn't until he was 12 years old that Connor felt the call to ministry—a calling he initially tried to evade but ultimately embraced. In January 2024, Connor became the interim children's pastor and was voted in full-time by July of the same year. He was also ordained that same month. Connor's ultimate goal is to spread the gospel and witness God's transformative work in the lives of children. Every Sunday and Wednesday, he joyfully leads the younger members of Beulah in deepening their relationship with God, nurturing a foundation of faith that will guide them throughout their lives.
