Norman Lawrence

Senior Pastor

Rev. Norman Lawrence has served in full-time ministry for 30 years as Youth Pastor, Associate Pastor, and Senior Pastor in churches in the Potomac and Pennsylvania-Delaware District Councils of the Assemblies of God. He is a 1982 Graduate of Zion Bible Institute.

Lawrence has also recorded music on two occasions, most recently, with his wife. They have released a CD entitled, "One Less Stone." The music CD also contains a song entitled, "Pray the Price." He wrote this song following an inspirational message in which the speaker encouraged all of the pastors in attendance to "pray the price" if they expected to see lasting results in the lives of people, as well as in their own ministries.

Brenda brings a love for people with her, and enjoys ministering to Children, as well as using her singing abilities to bring Glory to God. Brenda has served in previous ministries such as; Missionettes Sectional Coordinator, Missionettes Sponsor, Choir, Worship Team Member, Women's Ministries leader, and more. She is a 1985 Graduate of Zion Bible College, and traveled extensively with the Zion Collegians ministering in song as well as promoting the great work of Zion.

They are the parents of 2 sons, Dwayne and Aaron.

Dwayne was born in 1988 and is attending Liberty University in Lynchburg, VA, and Aaron was born in 1989 and is attending Zion Bible College in Haverhill, MA.

They both have enjoyed time in Maine during the summer at Whited Bible Camp both as Campers and Counselors.

We are believing for continued growth in the church spiritually and numerically. Take time to visit Millersburg Assembly of God this Sunday!
