OUR LEADERSHIP TEAM

Our church is led by a team of elders. We currently have three serving elders - two volunteers (Aaron Barton and Bud Clark) and the Lead Pastor (Jonathan Walton). 

The elder team has equal leadership responsibility and addresses matters of policy, priorities, vision, and mission. The team also proposes budgets, protects, and shepherds the church body. 

If you need to contact one of the elders, their emails and phone numbers are printed on the back of the church program each week.

Meet our Pastor –

Jonathan Walton was born in October 1984 in Atlanta, Georgia. He is the second of four children. His parents, being first-generation Christians, did their very best to raise Jonathan and his siblings in the way of the Lord. He was saved at the age of six, and at a young age, Jonathan felt a great desire to serve the Lord in ministry, particularly as a pastor. He responded to that desire and served the Lord in church growing up.

He attended Pensacola Christian College and graduated in 2009 with a bachelor’s degree in Pastoral Ministries. Over the last 12 years, he has served as a Youth Pastor and Associate Pastor. In October 2018, Jonathan met the love of his life, Chauntel, and together, they have three daughters. 

The Lord brought Jonathan to Lacey Bible Church as Lead Pastor in February 2024.
