Our Staff
Dr. and Mrs. John C. Adams
Originally from southern Ohio, the Lord has seen fit to use Pastor Adams in either planting churches or rebuilding them. Since being called to preach in 1972 at the age of 19, he has started one church in upstate New York and been used to pastor four other churches in the USA and one in Germany. In each case the churches had fallen drastically in attendance and offerings before calling him as pastor. The Lord has used Pastor Adams in rebuilding each work spiritually, numerically, and financially, especially in the area of missions. (The church in NY is now 38 years old and many of the members that are still there today were saved and baptized under Pastor Adams’ ministry.)
Though his father was unsaved, his mother was saved and faithfully brought up her children in the fear and admonition of the Lord. His father was a crane operator at the steel mill, and for most of John’s life, his mother was a homemaker. She went to work when John was a teenager, necessitated by a heart attack of John’s father.
John has been married to his high school sweetheart, Theresa, for 50 years and they have five children, and eighteen grandchildren. All the children are married, and all are faithfully serving the Lord in Baptist churches.
Beau and Brittani Garber
Brother Beau Garber grew up in Windsor, Colorado. At the age of ten, Beau Garber accepted Jesus Christ in the coffee room at his home church, Windsor Baptist Church. From there, he saw his family change and grow close to the Lord. Then at sixteen, Beau was called to teach youth in America. After attending Heartland Baptist Bible college, he received an opportunity to teach in Torrington, Wyoming. After serving in that church for seven years, he felt God had decided to move him and his family to Texas to be the Assistant Pastor at Solon Road Baptist Church. Just after two years in Texas, God moved his family to Albuquerque in 2018 to be the Assistant Pastor at Mountain Springs Baptist Church.
Beau and Brittani grew up in two separate states. Brittani grew up in Fort Scott, Kansas, where she went to church at Grace Baptist Church under the Pastoral leadership of her father Paul Rooks. Beau met Brittani at Silver State Baptist Youth Camp in 2007. From there, a long distant relationship began to flourish. Five years later, they said their “I do’s” and have now been married for over seven years. They have four children together; Emma, Madison, Boston, and Felicity.
Beau has now been in the ministry for twelve years. He has a love for Missions, a heart for Teenagers, and a zeal for the Lord. Willing and ready to do whatever it takes to get the Gospel to anyone willing to receive it.
