Joel and Faye Rye serve as Senior Elders at Emerald Coast Worship Centre. They also administer the hospital visitation program for the church. They serve as assistant chaplains at the Fort Walton Beach Medical Center, visit nursing homes, and conduct a Bible study at the Hawthorne House, as assisted living home located at Bob Hope Village.
Our relocation from Arkansas to Fort Walton Beach was a miraculous move of God that changed the plans we had for the latter years of our lives. We became a part of this ministry in October 2001 and quickly realized why God guided our footsteps to this area. We are excited about what God has in store for Emerald Coast Worship Centre and consider ourselves blessed to be part of a ministry where the leadership believes that reaching the world for Jesus is the most important calling we have as Christians. It’s an honor for us to serve our God by supporting and praying for our pastors, staff, and members of this ministry.
