Elder Danny Raines, Pastor 

I was born and raised in Lebanon Tennessee. My family attended Town Creek Missionary Baptist Church in Lebanon. It was under the preaching of  Bro. E.L. Wainscott at Town Creek that I heard the gospel message and realized I was lost and in need of salvation. I was saved at the age of 13. I presented myself for membership of Town Creek Missionary Baptist church at the age of 14 and was baptized by Bro. Wainscott.

 The Lord called me to preach at the age of 16 during a Revival at Town Creek while I was sitting on the back seat of the Amen corner. I ran from the call for almost 12 years. It was on February 14, 1990 that God broke me down and I surrendered to the call into the ministry.

 At this time I was a member of Old Paths Missionary Baptist Church in Lebanon. I preached my first sermon in March 1990 at Old Paths.

 I was called to Pastor by Madison Missionary Baptist Church in 1992. I was ordained by Old Paths August 29, 1992. I left Madison Church in March 1995.

 I was called to Pastor by Caney Fork Missionary Baptist Church in Smith County Tennessee in December 1995. I left Caney Fork in August 2012.                                                                 

  I was called to Pastor by Longview Missionary Baptist Church and my first day at Longview was August 26, 2012.

My family is wife Marsha and our two children Jennifer and Austin. 

Marsha and I dated in High School and were married shortly after graduation.
