Pastor | Evangelist
Taking the full Gospel of the Kingdom to the world in the demonstrated, supernatural power of our Lord Jesus Christ, and showing pastors how to do the same. Born into a long heritage of ministers dating in the family Bible back to the 1400s, Pastor Nathan Smalley felt the call of The Lord all of his life. But at the age of eight, Pastor Nathan knew without a doubt that one da
y The Lord would use him when he experienced a visitation from the Holy Spirit for the first time. By age 20, he was ministering The Gospel in The Philippines in villages that had never before heard the name "Jesus" . Nathan obeyed a call from The Lord to found a home church in February 1986, and Port Lavaca Christian Fellowship was born. Port Lavaca Christian Center, as it has been called for more than 25 years, is located in Port Lavaca, Texas, near the Gulf of Mexico. It is primarily a ministry "outpost" for missions, as most efforts are focused on what The Lord is doing abroad in the lives of the poor, needy and broken. Nathan has traveled extensively in his 35+ years in ministry, and the past 11 years has concentrated most mission efforts in Mexico. Pastor Nathan and our ministry team continue to follow that original call to preach the Gospel to the poor...to "go to the highways, byways and hedges" to have a burden to share Jesus with the world, exercising the gift of prophecy to 1) edify the church and 2) call sinners to repentance, as 1 Corinthians 14 instructs. We believe we aren't meant to die on our comfortable church chairs, to achieve a social status or to attain wealth or position, but rather to GO, as Matthew 16 instructs us to do. The pure, unadulterated WORD is preached, and we pray the seed lands on good soil (Matt 13), bear fruit, and that the fruit will remain (John 15:16). Our numbers are few, our message of the Gospel is simple--yet tough--and are hearts follow just one voice--the voice of the Shepherd (John 10:27). and abroad contact Pastor Nathan because they need a word from The Lord, and he is happy to pray with you. If you don't have a personal relationship with Jesus, contact us today. For more information on foreign missions, please message us. Port Lavaca Christian Center service hours:
