The Ballard Family

Randy was saved at the age of 13 in his Sunday School class. He went forward in church that same morning during the church service and made a profession of faith. He then followed in baptism the next Sunday.

His wife, MaryAnn, accepted Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior in 1976, when she was nine years old. She went forward during a church invitation on a Sunday morning and her father led her to the Lord. She then followed in baptism on that next Easter Sunday.

God has given them so many blessings in their lives starting with four wonderful children: Brett (21), Amber (18), Danielle (12), and Luke (4). Brett, Amber and Danielle have all accepted Jesus Christ as their personal Savior.

They joined Grace Baptist Church in November of 2005 and are looking forward to working in the Youth Ministry at Grace. They believe that God uses teens to reach others for Christ and that He has great things planned for the youth here at Grace Baptist. They are looking forward to allowing God to use them to further His ministry.
