MEET OUR  PASTOR
Bro. Robert A. Wirges

Bro.Wirges began serving the Lord at age 19. Shortly after meeting his now wife, Pamela, he repented of his sins and asked the Lord to save him. He and Pamela married in 1980 and attended Antioch Missionary Baptist Church, but they later joined and began serving at NLR. Bro.Wirges was the music director and men’s Sunday school teacher. Sis.Wirges taught children’s classes. Six children later, Bro.Wirges felt God calling him to preach. He prayed about it and surrendered to the call. In 1998, Hamilton asked him to be their pastor which he felt God wanted him to do. They served 10 beautiful, memorable years there. In 2008, NLR asked him to return and be their pastor which having prayed he believed God desired him to do. He and his wife have been serving God here ever since. They pray they will be blessed with many more years of service and hear God tell them “Well done,” when He calls them home.
