Pastor A. Paul Paige
Pastor Paige officially became the Pastor of New First Baptist Church (Taylorsville) on April 15, 2018. Pastor Paige and our Pastor have developed a strong brotherly bond. Since 2018, their relationship has grown closer over time, resembling that of brothers.. Pastor Paige, his wife, First Lady Nicole Paige, and the entire New First Baptist Church (Taylorsville) family hold a special place in Pastor Turner's heart. When Pastor Turner was installed on December 5, 1999, the New First Baptist Church (Taylorsville) showed up in large numbers to support their "Son in the Ministry." Ever since then, New First Baptist Church (Taylorsville) has been there for Pastor Turner, offering their unwavering support.
We are thrilled to welcome Pastor Paige and the New First Baptist Church (Taylorsville) to join us in commemorating this significant event. Their presence adds to the joy of this momentous occasion.
