20 years in a single place of employment is a long time by any stretch of the imagination but for Pastor Bart Barber, it’s been a match made in heaven.
Barber recently celebrated his 20th anniversary of being pastor for First Baptist Church of Farmersville.
As a boy from Lake City, Ark. he sensed a calling from God to become a pastor at the age of 11 and began his first pastoral leadership at the age of 17.
He has served in pastorates at Black Oak, Ark., Jonesboro, Mill Creek, Okla., Royse City and Lake City, Ark.
