About Us
We invite you to join us for an awesome worship experience! Our worship is upbeat and inspiring.
The atmosphere is casual and friendly. We continuously strive to reflect the beautiful diversity of God's Kingdom and our community.
God makes no distinction between the haves and the have nots. We'd be honored to be of service to you in your faith journey!
What We Believe
We believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that He was crucified, died and buried, and on the third day He arose from the dead and ascended on high where He took His seat at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty until His enemies became His footstool.
We believe in the rapture, that the dead in Christ will rise first and those that are alive and remain shall be caught up to meet Jesus in the air. We believe in the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.
We believe that the Bible is the written Word of God inspired by God. We believe that faith is acting on the word of God. We believe in divine healing and that Jesus is the Healer.
We believe in tithing and bringing offerings into the Church. We also believe in providing and caring for the poor, sick, homeless, and others in need.
We believe in water baptism in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Dr. Haire, a humble servant who carries and releases many words of wisdom, is the Pastor of The Love Center/St. John Missionary Baptist Church in Dunn, North Carolina. He became the pastor of St. John Missionary Baptist Church, July 1980.

They have been blessed with four sons, one daughter, three daughters-in-law, two granddaughters, one grandson and one great-granddaughter. He is one who takes great pride in his family. As a result, he nurtures his ministry as a committed father nurtures his family. He is a follower of the biblical principle: God, family, and the church.

What Is Love
"Love is what loves does. Love does what is right; What is right: THE WORD OF GOD."
The word of God is the root of growth and development. When looking at the word, we see love as the center and main focus of our daily living. With this in mind, we should allow love to be our main priority. We know that God is love, that is a sure thing. Therefore, how we live daily should depict love, In every situation we face, we must allow the love of God to be seen: whether the situation is good or bad, for love covers... (1 Peter 4:8) Once the will of God takes precedence, His love overtakes and lifts a standard in our life. Romans 13:8 reads, "Owe no man anything except to love one another, for he who loves another has fulfilled the law". Let's do the will of God: LOVE!
Devotional
IS YOUR LABOR IN VAIN?
Psalm 127:1, Unless the Lord builds the house, they labor in vain who build it; Unless the Lord guards the city; the watchman stays awake in vain. Is the Lord priority or consulted as we do His work or are we merely functioning through our own human efforts? Human effort alone is not enough for achieving fulfilment or lasting success. Human effort is not sufficient. Many times, we are doing things according to our own need and plan, but there is a need for divine guidance and blessing in all endeavors. In order to construct an effective ministry, reliance must be on God's power and wisdom. In order for ministry to thrive, it has to be the Lord's doing, His way. Each effort we put forth is meaningless without the leading of the Holy Spirit. Let Him lead the way. As the song says, "where He leads me, I will follow. I'll go with Him all the way." It's time to be about our Father's business, move self out of the way, and let God reign.
