Randy grew up in small town America (Mount Vernon, Indiana) as the oldest of five children. Raised in an unchurched family, he came to Christ as an adult through the influence of a godly wife and the persistent work of the Holy Spirit. After graduating from the United States Military Academy (West Point), he spent the next 21+ years serving as an officer in the United States Army. He retired as a Lieutenant Colonel when he became “…too old to jump out of airplanes and sleeping on the ground was no longer fun.” Randy then began a second career- teaching  Chemistry at Calhoun Community College. After teaching for 25 years, he has retired for a second time. He and Janet have been married for over 47 years and have one son (Matthew), daughter-in-law (Amanda) and two grandsons (Grayson & Johnathan). Randy enjoys serving in the church through teaching adult Sunday School classes and facilitating K-Groups. He enjoys reading (especially history), shooting and golf, and plans to learn to fly fish.

Jim grew up in Texas and Louisiana where family and athletics were a constant source of enjoyment.  As a sophomore in college, he realized his sin (Rom 3:23) and his great need for a Savior and put his faith in Christ alone.  He began to grow in his faith and was discipled by godly men. After graduating from Louisiana State University, he began working with the US Army Corps of Engineers in Vicksburg, MS and served as a volunteer youth pastor. He and his wife, Sue, have been married 49 years, have three adult children and five grandchildren. His work assignments have taken them to many exciting locations.

Mike Hutchison – Elder

Raised in a small town in rural West Virginia, Mike came to faith in Jesus Christ at the age of 8 through the ministry of the local Baptist church. His mother, sister, and father came to Christ all within the same year, so Mike grew up in a family who loved the Lord and was actively involved in the ministry of the church. Mike grew spiritually through his pre-teen and teen years under the influence of his godly parents and pastors. His wife, Vickie, moved to the same small town during her teen years.  They began dating during Mike’s junior year in college and were married within a month after Mike graduated with a B. S. in chemical engineering. Mike worked for 40 years in the chemical industry in process design and research before retiring in 2009. He and Vickie celebrated their 53rd wedding anniversary in 2022. They have two adult daughters and four grandchildren. Over the 60+ years since his salvation, Mike has been privileged to serve the Body of Christ through teaching and as deacon and elder. In addition to teaching, Mike also enjoys music (especially choral and a cappella), acoustics, home electronics, and sharing life with his wife and daughter’s family, who moved here to Huntsville in 2019.

Shortly after, Brian and his now-wife, Kelsey, began dating. They both attended Auburn University where Brian graduated with a BA in Psychology. Brian and Kelsey married in July of 2011 and were both baptized as professing believers a few months later in October.
