Our Awesome Leaders...
Churchland North Baptist Church was birthed out of a community complex called Churchland North in Portsmouth , VA 1994. It began when two sisters Bertha and Veronica Mitchell would walk the property in the evenings and bared witness to the needs of the people within the complex. Sister Bertha started seeking help and contacted a Pastor with their expressed need of Jesus within this community. Pastor Robert L. Baker, Sr. took on this assignment and a Bible Study group started to evolve. In 1995 Pastor Baker assigned Pastor Randolph Beverly to this ministry in which it became Churchland North Missionary Circle. This circle would meet and hold services inside the community rental office and being a facility that was not accommodating to a ministry there were struggles. As they continued and pressed forward a church across the street became vacant and available for rent so the circle grasped hold of that opportunity and moved right in. This was the ground that was needed for this Circle to accommodate more people and it started to take root and grow. During this time Pastor Beverly encouraged this group to buy a parcel of land on the community property, in which a building fund started. As we were building to purchase Pastor Beverly went on to be with the Lord. He had great vision and started us on the right track and unfortunately he didn't get to see the vision come to pass. We continued tithing and moving forward with the vision. After efforts of seeking a new Pastor in continuing this journey the Lord sent us Pastor Timothy Dale Thomas, Sr. He became the new shepard of Churchland North Baptist Church. Through Pastor Thomas and the body we got our building and parcel of land along with so many great opportunities in ministry. Pastor Thomas served this house and continually moved us forward for the past twelve years. Pastor Thomas has accomplished and done great things with us and through us. Pastor Thomas has been called onto another journey within his walk and is truly appreciated for all he and his family has done for this church. As of September 2017 we have selected a new shepard who now serves as our Pastor Melvin O. Jiggetts. We look forward to a great future and building the Kingdom of God together.
