Pastoral Team
The Pastoral Ministries office serves in a variety of areas. Our vision is to share the good news and make disciples of Jesus Christ with people in our community and throughout the globe. Our mission is to make visits, offer prayer, comfort, & encouragement, lend Godly counsel & support, and make ministry training available to those who need it. Out of a love and passion for God, our Deacon Ministry serves our church family in many capacities and those in the community. Our Widow Ministry exists to help each other grieve, cope, and experience a close fellowship with other widows.
As part of the New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary, our office serves as an extension center. Each week men and women from surrounding cities come to Olive to study diligently toward their Masters of Divinity degree. As they learn Greek and Hebrew and study the Bible, they are each following their calling from the Lord.
We are here to minister to you.

Lay Ministries
Huey Pearson serves as the Director of Lay Ministries. He and his family have been long time members of Olive and the Pensacola Community. Huey is married to Susan who teaches in Escambia County. They have two children, Paul and Sarah.
It is the mission of the Lay Ministry Department to help the members of Olive discover their spiritual gifts, their personal style and God-given passion for ministry. We will be teaching spiritual gift classes on Wednesday nights to challenge you to pray and think about the practical application of your gifts to ministry in our church, community and on the mission field. We can help you find a place of service on a ministry team at Olive.
Our Media Library has many available resources to help you indentify and encourage you to use your spiritual gifts. One great resource is the book What You Do Best In the Body of Christ by Bruce Bugbee. You can also go online at teamministry.com and take a Spiritual Gifts Inventory.
