You don’t get a ministry like The Way off the ground and keep it running without some solid help from professionals.  H.B. Quinn is one of those for us.  He’s not only been an invaluable facilitator for us, but also a Proud Sponsor of The Way.

H.B. has spent countless hours helping us get our new building up and running. Thanks to his help, we were able to purchase and exchange properties and obtain city zoning approval. Over the years he’s provided legal advice on other issues relating to The Way.

Of course, H.B. has a life outside of paperwork for The Way. His laws of practice include general civil and criminal trials and negligence cases. He’s well versed in real estate, corporate and probate law.

A proud father of one son and two daughters, H.B. spends his spare time listening to rock and roll, reading, and watching UK football and basketball games.

His practice is located at 14 Court Street.  You can reach him at 522.3481.

Ira and Missy Burgess grew up in Trigg County.  They’ve raised two children here. They understand better than most that, for many youths in the area, there’s not a lot to do after school. At least, not a lot of positive things to do.

That’s one reason they decided to make their business – Consignment World & Antiques – a Proud Sponsor of The Way.

“I feel Cadiz needs activities for our youth,” Missy said. “Our youth also need Christian role models. I feel The Way will be great for our community. We are proud to call Trigg County our home and want to give back to our community.”

Our ministry is delighted to announce Lake Barkley Insurance as our most recent Proud Sponsor of The Way.

Lake Barkley Insurance offers home, auto, life, farm and commercial insurance. Its goal is to make sure businesses, families and individuals are covered in times of desolation.

No one likes to find herself in a prickly situation.  However, many women – and quite a few men – in Cadiz enjoy finding themselves in The Prickly Peach, the newest Proud Sponsor of The Way.

Some people say you should never trust a used car salesman.  Lance Stallons has spent much of his life proving them wrong.

It’s one of the many reasons why The Way is pleased to welcome Stallons Auto Sales as a Proud Sponsor of The Way.

“The Way is a great help to the youth in our community,” Lance said. “We are glad to support The Way and would encourage others to do so.”

Lance has spent most of his life around cars. As a boy, he helped his father Jimmy wash them.  He later spent nearly seven years at a new car franchise. In 1995, he and his father Jimmy opened Stallons Auto Sales at 1944 W. 7th St. in Hopkinsville. The dealership specializes in quality used cars, fair prices and excellent customer service.

Lance and his wife Angie are Trigg County natives. The attend New Hope Baptist Church, where Lance serves as deacon and music leader.

Few pastors in the area have led the same church for 32 years. Brother Daniel Swartz, pastor of Emmanuel Bible Church in Cadiz, holds that rare distinction.

And his church now holds the distinction of being the latest Proud Sponsor of The Way.

Emmanuel Bible Church was started in 1982 by local families who felt the need for a Trigg County church that emphasized the systematic teaching of God’s Word.  In January 1983 the church was officially charged with the name Logos Christian Fellowship Church. Later that year, they called Daniel Swartz to be their full-time pastor.

In the 1990s, the church underwent two significant changes.  It changed its name to the present one in April 1996.  In August of that year, the church – which had been meeting in an American Legion building – hired an architect to design a new sanctuary.  The present sanctuary and foyer were completed in October 1998.

Emmanuel Bible Church is located at 2887 Hopkinsville Road in Cadiz.  Sunday School starts at 9:45 a.m., followed by worship services at 10:45 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Sunday.

One of the first churches in Trigg County to bless The Way financially on a monthly basis was Canton Baptist Church. We’re honored to call them a Proud Supporter of The Way.

“Canton Baptist Church is grateful to participate in the ministry of The Way,” said Interim Pastor Larry Baker. “We pray that God will use this ministry mightily in reaching the youth in Trigg County for Christ and providing them with wholesome activity while pointing them to the local church.”

Canton Baptist has served Trigg County since 1855. In 1930, it reorganized and reopened an old community church building that had been obtained from the Methodists and Presbyterians who had abandoned it. In 1988, the church began building the facility where it worships today.

The church’s slogan is: “Teaching The Word, Doing The Work: People Reaching People For Christ.” Two Canton Baptist members who embody that message are Richard and Vonnie Holsapple, pictured at left with Pastor Baker. Richard and Vonnie are volunteers at The Way, and we greatly appreciate their participation.

Canton Baptist Church is located at 423 Boyds Landing Road in Cadiz.  It holds an early service at 9:00 a.m. Sunday and a late service at 11:00 a.m., with Sunday School at 10:00 a.m.  Sunday evening service is 6:00 p.m., and there’s a Wednesday prayer and Bible study starting at 6:00 p.m.

Oak Grove Baptist Church has supported The Way since the ministry’s beginning in 2011.  It now supports The Way’s building fund, which makes it officially a Proud Sponsor of The Way.

“The Way is a good home mission project for our youth,” said Brother Larry Wilson, current interim pastor.

Oak Grove member Martha Davis is one of the hardest-working volunteers at The Way.  She’s not only a member of the board of directors and a weekly volunteer at the youth center, but she’s also co-chair of The Way’s fundraising efforts for a new building.

The church began when a group of Baptists in the Oak Grove community began meeting for worship in a grove near its present location. This group reportedly used the Guier Schoolhouse until a church was erected in 1875 on land donated by Stanley Thomas and Humphrey Lawrence.

A new house of worship was built in 1904, with the current sanctuary being erected in 1973.

Oak Grove Baptist Church is located at 45 Floyd Sumner Road in Cadiz.   Sunday School is at 9:00 a.m. and morning worship at 10:00 a.m.

Ponderosa Baptist Church was one of the earliest Proud Sponsors of The Way. It was one of two churches to partner with us when this ministry began in 2011.  Today, the church continues to support The Way with prayers, participation and financial contributions.

David Underhill (center) and his wife Beverly were original members of The Way’s board of directors. Sonny Black helped establish our information technology capabilities. Jerry Schissler (right), with assistance from his wife Ann, is the project manager for building our new facility.

And Pastor Norman Cotton (left), a former youth minister with a heart for reach young people for Christ, leads a church group who comes to The Way once a month to provide a gospel message, bring refreshments, and interact with the students.

The Way thanks the Lord for the kindness and generosity of Ponderosa Baptist Church. We’re proud to be yokefellows with them in serving Jesus Christ.

The church is located at 6283 Rockcastle Road in Cadiz.  Sunday School starts at 9:00 a.m. Worship services are at 10:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m.
