Pastor Blain Keaton has been the Pastor of Gloryland Baptist Church since 2006. With God's strength and help, the church has grown in number and spirit. The Lord has truly blessed Gloryland with a loving, God-fearing, Bible preaching Pastor to lead the church in the right direction. Pastor Blain and his wife, Donna, have two children, daughter, Laura, son, Joseph, a daughter-in-law, Leah, and three grandchildren. Sister Donna is all anyone could ask for in a pastor's wife. She leads our singing, plays the piano and is also part of our Special Singing. We pray that God will continue to bless and help Pastor Blain and his family.
From the Pastor Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, the blessed Son of God. It is indeed an honor to be the pastor of such a wonderful congregation of people as we have at Gloryland Baptist Church. Our Lord has blessed us in each and every way imaginable. We have the precious Word of God that leads, lifts, maintains, and ministers to us as we travel life's pathway. As I reflect over the years as pastor, I am reminded of I Samuel, chapter 23 and verse 4: "Only fear the Lord, and serve Him in truth with all your heart:forconsider how great things he hath done for you." I am looking forward to see what our God is going to do for us in the future. It is our goal here at Gloryland to lift up Christ and to present him as Savior to all that enter our doors. He has stated in His Word that He "is come to seek and to save that which was lost." We believe that all honor and glory belong to Him from whom all blessings flow. We believe that the preaching and teaching of God's word will encourage and enlighten the child of God. We also believe that His word will produce a conscience, place conviction, and prepare the heart of the unsaved for the conversion into God's family. It is our desire that those that come to worship will us will be able to say "I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord."
