New Grant City Baptist Pastor Comes Back Home

New Grant City Baptist Church Pastor Darin Drury said that he was following a calling when he got into the ministry. "I had a rough childhood growing up and it turned into a calling into the ministry," he said. He previously served as pastor of the Cave City (AR) Baptist Church. He has a wife, Nancy, along with three children, Reagan, Riley, and A.J. At one time, he was pastor of the Laura Street Baptist Church, so for him, this was a homecoming. Drury started out as a youth leader for Kansas City for KC Youth for Christ and he grew into a pastor. "I learned a lot about how to study and interpret the Bible there," he said. Drury said that he saw the opening at Grant City as an opportunity opening up as well as a homecoming for him and his family. "People have treated us great since we moved here," he said. He has already hit the ground running; the Grant City Baptist Church is planning a Thanksgiving Supper on Tuesday, November 20th. There are other events in the works as well.
