Pastor Search Update:
Did you know that it has been exactly one year since Brother Jimmy announced his retirement to the church on Feb 19, 2012 (effective in June).

For the past weeks, the PSC focus has transitioned from processes to individuals. This focus has made it difficult to be able to openly share details related to our activity. While this causes some frustration for all, the importance of confidentiality for the individuals involved cannot be overlooked. 
 
Please continue to be patient and prayerful as we seek God's man for FBCVA. The members of our Pastor Search Committee are: Dennis Smith, John Williamson, Mike Singleton, Jack Washington, Sue Dowdy, Russell Moore and Elizabeth Smith. Alternates are: Randall Morgan and Troy Weber.
