Rev. Tim Hallett, Jr., our Pastor
here at Birch Street Baptist
Church was born on July 3, 1975
in Rockford, IL
to Rev. Tim and Joyce Hallett, Sr. His Dad, Preacher Hallett, Sr. was
then pastoring the Bible Baptist Church
in Belvidere, IL. In July of 1977, when Pastor was
barely two years old, Preacher was called of the Lord to come to Eau Claire and
pastor the Birch St. Baptist Church
(formerly New Testament Baptist Church).
Pastor made a profession of faith at
the early age of 6, but could never personally remember praying the
sinner’s prayer and inviting Christ into his heart. For about 15
years he doubted his salvation and wondered where he would spend eternity
if he were to die. At the age of 21, during a Sunday morning revival
service, while attending the Berean
Baptist Church
in Galesville, WI, he went forward and invited Christ
into his heart and asked his Lord and Saviour to forgive him of his sins.
From that day since, he has never doubted his soul’s salvation and
he knows 100% sure
if he were to die today he would go to Heaven. You can know this too by
visiting our “be saved”
web page.
Pastor Hallett had served with
Preacher Hallett for the last 10 years in various positions, including
unofficially as the Assistant Pastor.
He was ordained by the Birch
Street Baptist
Church on July 2,
2005 and at that time was appointed officially as the Assistant Pastor of
Birch St. Baptist
Church.
Pastor Hallett grew up in the Eau Claire area and has seen all the
changes both physically and demographically that have taken place. One of
the most recent and exciting changes has been the Highway 53 Bypass as
exit 89 takes you to the front door of Birch Street Baptist Church.
Pastor married his wife Naomi on
March 29th, 2003. Naomi came to know the Lord Jesus Christ as
her personal Saviour at the young age of four after having questions
about death and Heaven. Naomi also grew up in a pastor’s home, and
her dad is still pastoring to this day. Pastor and Mrs. Naomi have a
total of 5 children. Titus, Thaddeus and Tobijah are in Heaven with
Christ, and Timothy III and Chaunna, are the children they have here on
earth, whom have brought much joy into their everyday lives.
We look forward to you meeting our
Pastor and his wife by you coming personally and visiting our church. We
are located at 3120 Birch
St. in Eau
Claire, approximately ½ mile west of exit 89 off
of the new Highway 53 Bypass.
