Hello,

My family and I are so happy to be at Carey Baptist Church. I have been the pastor since June 1, 2023. I am excited to see how The Lord uses me in Childress County.

A bit about my family: I married my wife, Mattie, on March 6, 2010. We have 4 wonderful children, 2 boys and 2 girls. God has blessed me richly. I surrendered to the ministry in 2012, and began my life as a youth pastor in June 2013. I spent 4 years in youth ministry before God called me to Senior Pastor. I began my first Senior Pastor position in 2017.

I love being a part of the community where we live and serve. If you ever need anything, please call!

In Christ,

Travis Leamon

Aiden ‘s Baptism
Today June 30, 2024 Carey 1st was blessed to witness the baptism of Aiden. As a congregation we have seen Aiden grow in his faith and Love for Jesus. During youth camp he responded to the Lord’s call to accept him as his Lord and Savior. This young man met with Pastor Travis and Mattie Leamon and he was encouraged to weigh the cost of salvation. Even after counseling on what he is giving up to serve Jesus he surrender his life to Jesus. He acknowledged with his own mouth that he is a sinner, that he believed in his heart that Jesus is Lord and died for our sins, that God raised him from the dead. Today as he was raised from the water symbolizing death, burial and resurrection. Today Aiden is born again starting a new life, a journey with Jesus.
Aiden Carey 1st is here to encourage and support you along the way. May you build a relationship with Jesus in prayer and listening when he speaks to you through the Bible, his Holy inspired word. We love you and extend the offer be there anytime you need us….do not be afraid to ask because we have all been there and needed Discipling
