Adam Nash, Pastor
You Are Always Welcome Here...
Attending a church for the first time can be filled with anxiety. Whether you are new to the community, a winter resident, or just visiting, we would like to welcome you to our church and invite you to attend our Sunday worship service or other weekly activities. We will welcome you graciously as our guest, and we promise not to make you feel conspicuous or uncomfortable. You don't even have to be a Baptist... many of our members attended churches of other denominations before discovering our church. We would love to meet you!
Join Us Thursdays for Coffee & Chat...
No need to panic if you no longer see “The Den” on the weekly calendar… it's now called “Coffee & Chat”. It still happens every Thursday at 9:00 am, and nothing has changed except the name.
“The Den” was the interim name for what used to be called “Glen’s Den”. When Pastor Glen Foster retired, the name had to change. “Glen’s Den” was a catchy, descriptive name that worked well, but with a new Pastor named Adam Nash, a catchy name that rhymes just couldn’t be found.
So, it will just be called what it is… Coffee & Chat”. Just fill your cup to the brim, grab a cake or cookie, find an empty chair, and prepare for an “anything goes” discussion of just about anything (except politics). You will learn, you will be entertained, you will be challenged, and you will experience fellowship in its best form. You can participate as much or as little as you wish, so come and join the discussion. No reservations are required! Guests are always welcome!

Updated Covid Guidance...
With Covid cases on the rise again, here is updated guidance from our Pastor…
Please do not attend the Sunday worship service (or other in-person church gatherings) in person if you have any symptoms that could be Covid-related. If in doubt, please get tested. Masks will be available at the Sunday service. They are not mandatory at this time; however, wearing a mask is an easy and proven way to protect yourself and your fellow churchgoers and reduce the risk of unintentionally spreading Covid.
Our Sunday services are available via Zoom via computer or smartphone, and they are also live-streamed on YouTube, so please take advantage of these options if you can’t attend in person. You can also access past services on the SERMONS page of this website, or on YouTube by searching for “Pantano Baptist Church”. For Zoom access, please contact the church office. Access to services on YouTube does not require a password and is available to anyone.

Meet Our Pastor...
We are very pleased to introduce Adam Nash as the new Pastor of Pantano Baptist Church. Adam and his wife Amber have now relocated to Tucson, and Adam conducted his first Sunday worship service and preached his first sermon on Sunday, May. 8. If you missed the occasion, the entire service is available for viewing on the "Sermons" page of this website or on You Tube.
Adam received his bachelor’s degree from Eastern Kentucky University in 2008, and a Masters of Divinity degree from Baptist Seminary of Kentucky in 2016. Adam has served in three different churches since 2010, most recently as Associate Pastor of Youth and Technology at Del Norte Baptist Church in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
As we welcome Adam and Amber to Tucson and to our church, we acknowledge the efforts of the Pastor Search Committee… finding the right person that exactly fits the needs of our church has required some time, effort, and patience, but they are confident that Adam is the right person to inspire our congregation and lead our church forward in these challenging times.
We have been very blessed to have Gary Smyth as our interim Pastor. It is not easy to come out of retirement and assume all of the duties of a full-time pastor; however, Gary has kept the congregation inspired and motivated during this period, and he has endeared himself to our church members.
As Adam takes the reins and begins the process of moving our church forward, there is much that needs done. Now is an opportune time to re-engage, recharge, and offer your unique skills and talents to help Adam and Amber get off to the best possible start. And, if you are looking for a new church home, there couldn't be a better time to give our church a try... all are welcome - especially you!
