Elders
Paul Neff, husband to Glenda, father and grandfather, served faithfully as a longtime pastor in the American Baptist denomination. He retired from West Haven, Conn to join his son and family here in FL. Paul also served faithfully in the role of chaplain, both in government and police posts. The Neff’s lifelong, tender care of their blind, deaf and profoundly handicapped daughter, Naomi, spoke volumes to our church family of their character and deep trust in God. We are thankful to have them at Lakeside. Contact Pastor Neff
