‘Unique and unexpected’ church setting

In the months since FBC Jacksonville opened a second campus at Old Henry Farm in October 2008, the new congregation — EaglePoint Church — has seen dozens come to know the Lord. Attendance has risen to more than 300 from a core group of 35. The nontraditional setting serves to ‘remove any and all barriers that might keep someone from coming through the doors,’ said Derek Staples, senior pastor of FBC Jacksonville, who preaches at both campuses each Sunday.
