Meet The Pastor
Pastor John Woodford
Thanks for considering Good News Baptist Church. I have enjoyed pastoring here since 2007, GNBC is family to me. My wife and I graduated from Faith Baptist Bible College and T.S. in Ankeny, Iowa in 2005 & 2007. We have 3 young children, in a church full of kids we are all thankful for.
My plans into early adulthood was to be a Dairy Farmer. I had my own cows and planned to take over the family farm at some point. Then God opened my eyes to how people need the Lord, to have the hope of eternal life... Life is short, God used taking my Mom home to be with Him when I was 10 years old and then my step Mom as well when I was 27. God used Mark 8:34-38 to call me into the ministry and follow Him. So it's my heart's desire to share the Good News of Jesus Christ with as many as we can.
