Vision
Pastor Laurent’s desire is that “Every man comes to the realization that trusting in Jesus Christ as his Savior does not take away from his manhood but affirms it”. Pastor Laurent is committed to the Little Flock motto “Where a Taste of Word is Guaranteed” is in full force in every ministry at Little Flock. His desire is that no one who enters the doors of Little Flock will leave feeling as though they did not receive what they came into the God’s house to get and that is ” A Taste of the Word”. Pastor Laurent had a dream of not only growing Little Flock’s membership when he came in 2003 but to restore the building as well. The membership has grown tremendously over the past 20 years and Operation Renovation went into full effect in November 2022. On January 29, 2023, we walked into our newly renovation church a vision that Pastor Laurent had over 20 years ago.
