We are a new and
growing fellowship, located approximately 80 miles north east of Phoenix.
God has called us to step out in faith and take a stand for him in this
region of Arizona.
We would like to ask for your support
through your prayers and through any gifts that God
may lead you to give. We have our eye on a piece of property, and enough
people to hold services and influence our community for Christ. There are
approximately 2100 people who live in this area and most of them without
a church home. What we need is the support of God's
people to help us with the initial step in acquiring the property and building
God has for us.
We are presently working as a mission
of Roosevelt Baptist Church. We have heard and are acting on the
command from God to step out in faith to be a self supporting fellowship.
When we take all of the steps God is placing before us, we will be in need
of not only property, a building, but a Pastor, a piano, and all of the
other items necessary for a christian fellowship.
We ask you first and foremost to pray
for us. Pray that the property God wants us to purchase will be made known
soon. Pray that the building will not only meet our immediate needs, but
meet the expectations God has for Punkin Center Baptist Church.

It has been our pleasure to serve under the leadership of Pastor Cliffard and the Roosevelt Baptist Church for the past couple of years. We believe the best way to "pay back" what they have done for us is to grow to the point of starting a mission someday on our own. People come to know Jesus best by a one on one relationship with a Christian, Churches grow best by utilizing those relationships. Please feel free to contact Steve Scott by email at sosscott@imagin.net for any clarification or discrepancies on this page.
As a small community in the rolling hills of Eastern Arizona, life often moves at a slower pace than in the big city, yet we recognize the urgency of the time concerning sharing Jesus with a lost and dying world. We do hope that you will pray with us and for us as God builds on His Kingdom.
Thank you for the prayers and blessings you have already sent on our behalf. Please forward us your address or Email account so we can keep you up to date with what God is doing at Punkin Center Baptist Church.
The art work of Douglas Hamm is now available through a genorous gift to The Punkin Center Baptist Church. These once in a life time photos capture the majesty of God's creation. We invite you to read a few of the articles and press releases pertaining to these photographs. As soon as we finish safely digitalizing these photos, we will have them available to view here on our web site. Douglas, one of our newest members, has made 80 sets of these photos available for sale to the Glory of God. There are 5 absolutely beautiful arial photos of the Rockford, Illinois area in the set. Mountains, rivers, watersheds, and deltas are just a few of the majestic wonders of God's handy work available in these photos. There are only 80 sets available, and when these are gone, they're all gone. With 100% of the proceeds going to build The Punkin Center Baptist Church, we know you won't want to wait to order your set. God is truly Great! Isn't He?
In Christ,
Gene Scott
