First Baptist Church Youngsville

If you ever needed a one stop shop in order to get anything done, then you've come to the right person when you meet Asher Jones. Our Youth Minister not only provides a Christ-centered ministry for our youth, but he also owns a pressure washing company and he works for an injection molding company. Asher is attending Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Kansas City, Missouri, where he is pursuing a BA in Biblical Studies. In addition, he has received a Christian Foundation Certificate from Leavell College in New Orleans. Asher is blessed to be one of three children who was raised by two parents who have been fantastic role models for him all his life. He values the gift of learning patience from his two sisters and the encouragement he gets from them to be better.  As he was praying for a door to open for him to be able to pursue a career in youth ministry, some of his mentors from First Baptist Lafayette mentioned to him that our church happened to be looking for a youth minister and they thought that this would be a good fit for him. Once Asher was able to check out the church and meet the congregation, he quickly found he loved the church. He is learning new things every day, especially from Brother Chris and his preaching. Asher would love to see our youth ministry grow and he has great plans to move that goal along. 

Asher's favorite scripture is found in James 1:2-4 ESV - Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing
