Johnson, his wife Tiffany and their two sons, Micah,10, and Asher, 5, live in Stanford.

The Stanford Christian Church, which began in 1834 and has been at its current location at 200 East Main Street since 1881, anticipates serving the needs of this community for many more years and the calling of a new minister to lead the church is a part of this continuing process.

Sunday worship service begins at 10:50 a.m. and all are welcome.
