Pastor Nick Thompson was saved as a teenager at TTC Boy's Home in Devil's Elbow, MO. During a revival meeting at the boy's home in the summer of 2002, God moved on his heart and he surrendered to preach. He attended Providence Baptist College and graduated in 2009. He met his wife, Kristen, while in college and God had blessed them with 3 children. Pastor Nick accepted the call to the pastorate of New Hope Baptist Church in May of 2019. Since then, the church has seen folks saved, baptized and grow in the Lord.
