The Pattersons came to
Louisiana from Virginia in 1992. After a successful pastorate in Virginia, they were called back to Grace Harbor, formerly Word of Life, and have faithfully led the church since that time.
Pastor Mike and Bertha attended Emmanuel College in Franklin Springs, Georgia, where they met. They both have a rich Christian heritage which helps them to be effective ministers to this day. Their ministry has spanned more than 30 years.
Mike and Bertha have two children, Jared and Lydia.
