in the beginning...
The foundation for Evergreen Church rests on a deep spiritual connection. Jeremy and Mary first met the Lord on Easter in 2009. Years later, in 2017, Jeremy began working in full-time ministry at their local church.
In May 2023, Jeremy had a dream about the future vision, which became a clear reality by December 2023! When God began stirring the idea of church planting in Tennessee, it was clear: Jeremy was being called to start this new venture.

Where do you want to meet...
In the summer of 2023, Jeremy felt God leading him toward something new. A simple prayer—"Where do you want to meet with me?"—sparked months of scriptural searching, prayer, and solitude, ultimately drawing his heart to the Tri-Cities of Tennessee.
When the idea of church planting surfaced, Jeremy was hesitant, but he kept an open mind and trusted the promptings in prayer. Right before Christmas, a powerful moment of clarity in prayer solidified the call for Jeremy, making him certain that the Lord was calling him to a new beginning in Bristol.

Where we are headed...
Our year of immersion begins this summer. In 2026, we are relocating to the Tri-Cities to plant our roots deeply in the community God has called us to. Over the next year—leading up to our very first service in September 2027—our focus is simple: integrate into the community, build new friendships, and pray for the Lord of the harvest to send laborers. We invite you to partner with us in prayer as we step into this exciting next chapter of what God is doing in Northeast Tennessee.
