Fulfilling the vision
By REV. JOHN HATCHER
Religion Columnist
Because Fayette County has experienced consistent growth in the last 15-20 years, new churches have cropped up as if overnight to meet the spiritual needs of a growing population. Our church was one of those "new" churches. Ten years ago this month, through unusual circumstances, the Lord and I started River's Edge Community Church. My wife, Mary Ann, and my daughter, Anna, along with a handful of faithful folks have hung in there with me over these ten years. I am most grateful to them for their continued partnership through all kinds of unbelievable events.
