Honoring Excellence in Ministry: John Heaggans

John Heaggans was recognized for his Excellence in Ministry by his church, Mount Zion Baptist Church (Farnham).  John had a distinguished career as a teacher, retiring after eighteen years as principal. A member of his church for more than forty years, he has served as a Deacon for 35 years, and chair of the Deacons Ministry for twenty years. Always willing to do his part, in recent years he has been the church’s only Deacon, working tirelessly in the areas of finance and budget, as Church School Superintendent, and as Treasurer for forty years. John’s gardening skills are known and appreciated by many, especially by those who enjoy his fruits and vegetables. His Pastor says of John, “There is no greater friend to the church and community than Deacon Heaggans. Mount Zion salutes him for his hard work and his dedication to excellence.”
