Our History

Out of a small independent church
founded in 1986, a vision to see hurting people helped was born. In 1990, God called Pastor Barry Bowie to that church
to preach the gospel with a special anointing of compassion towards others. Shortly after, in 1991, Pastor Bowie asked Gregory
Newcomb to join him as associate pastor. Greg, a former alcoholic, had a vision for an inner-city work that would reach out
to alcoholics and drug addicts. Pastor Bowie and his wife Peggy felt strongly that God wanted to give birth to the vision
that God had put in Greg's heart, and by 1993, Lighthouse Mission Ministries Nehemiah Program was born.
Since
that time, many have been called into this unique church to the homeless and addicted, and it has grown to over 400 beds in
six cities in three states; serving over 2500 people a year. To date, Lighthouse has served thousands, hundreds of whom are
faithful believers in Christ who remain sober, independent, and self-supporting; some of whom have gone on to full-time ministry.
The staff listed below is
made of people who are uniquely qualified for this type of ministry by their own life experiences and testimonies. All are
committed as pastors to the spread of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and to Lighthouse's special mission to be
a church to serve people who are not ready for traditional congregations that are not equipped to deal with their special
needs. These by no means serve alone; our programs are also carried out by many volunteers who give countless hours of service,
and to whom we are eternally grateful.
