our pastors
Mark + Ashley Brady
Pastor Mark knew as a child that he was called to ministry. He attended Rhema Bible Training Center in Tulsa, Ok. and graduated in 2003. From there he moved to Saint Augustine, Fl. to serve at Anchor Faith Church and quickly came under the leadership of Pastor Earl Glisson. Through much preparation he began to be mentored for full time ministry. He met his wife Ashley and they began to serve in various capacities, and ultimately as the full time children’s pastors. In 2010 plans were put in motion to plant Anchor Faith Church in Valdosta, Ga. and in October of 2011 Pastors Mark and Ashley answered the call to become senior pastors. They have 2 boys, Kamden and Austin.
this church is about what we can pass on to the next generation
We opened our doors on April 11, 2004 and ever since that day we’ve had a focus to Ignite the City, Impact the Nation, and Influence the World. By God's great grace, we've seen Him do it. Though 2004 is when our church was founded, our story doesn’t begin there.
The vision for Anchor Faith Church began to take shape in 1998 when Pastors Earl & Marci felt the call to plant a local church. It wasn’t until 6 years later, after attending Rhema Bible Training College, and working on staff that they were released to plant Anchor Faith Church in St. Augustine, Florida. The Glisson family eventually moved in October of 2003 to Saint Augustine, and by April 11th, 2004, Anchor Faith Church officially opened its doors became a reality in America's oldest city.
From that day, we've built on 4 simple things: discipleship, to see others grow in Christ; fellowship, to see others connected to those of like faith; leadership, to develop and equip the next generation, and exampleship, which is us demonstrating Christ to others. These 4 principles caused us to grab a hold of a larger vision just 4 short years later. In 2009 our first church plant, Anchor Faith Valdosta began.
Now as Anchor Faith Church continues to grow, the reputation of the church continues to expand. We have a dynamic influence in the USA, Central America, the Caribbean area, as well as a platform of influence in Asia. With more church plants on the horizon the vision remains consistent to Ignite the City, Impact the Nation, and Influence the World with the Kingdom of God.
