On behalf of the Edwards Family, the Pleasant Grove Community Church officially announces the Promotion to Glory of our beloved musician, Bro. Alan Edwards.

Brother Edwards served as the Minister of Music of this Church for over 25 years. He is known for his musical talents, ranging from playing the piano to singing with excellence on the mic. He served the Lord diligently and lived a life dedicated to Christ. He was married to the love of his life for over 30 years; their union was blessed with a son.

Some of the many songs we as a Church family often enjoyed hearing him sing were:

Won't It Be Grand
Send Up My Timber
Jesus On The Mainline
Stop By Here
Victory Shall Be Mine
Glory Glory, Hallelujah
What He's Done For Me

He is truly loved and will be missed by many, especially by the members here at Pleasant Grove. Please cover his Wife and Son in your prayers.

The family asks for privacy and respect during this time. Arrangements are Forthcoming and will be available here on this page.

Happy 4th Sunday! Here is a snippet from one of our powerful sermons this month!

We hope to see you all the First Sunday of March!

Ever felt like you were at your breaking point, only for God to show up with a miracle? 🐏 Abraham’s story reminds us: when you give God your best, He provides what you need most. What’s your "lamb in the bush" moment?
