Pastor Pearcy first came to this congregation on Father’s Day 1991 and has served as our pastor for over twenty-eight years (on a forty year assignment).  He and his wife, Davene, have ministered side by side since their wedding day in 1988.

The Pearcy’s arrived in Bentonville without children and still in their twenties.  The years have come and gone and many things have changed but their passion for people remains the same.  Every Sunday on the platform with her husband, you will find Davene, an amazing wife with a passion for ministry and for her family.
