Senior Pastor: Wayne Goodall
About Pastor Wayne
Pastor Wayne Goodall serves as Senior Pastor at Haven of Rest Baptist Church. He and his wife Linda have a deep desire to reach lost souls for Jesus Christ, and love ministering in the West Haven community. God truly uses all things to draw people to Him. While suffering from a back injury at age 23, Pastor Wayne saw an evangelist on television and heard the truth of the gospel. Soon after, he surrendered his life to Jesus Christ and was forever changed. At the time of his salvation, he was a practiced physical therapist, but felt God’s calling to serve Him in fulltime ministry. Having a hunger for God’s word, he enrolled in pastoral training at a bible institute and began to search and study the scriptures. During this time, he helped start a local church in the Valley and was a Deacon there for 11 years.
In March of 1999, his local church ordained him as a Pastor, and he and his wife Linda planted Haven of Rest Baptist Church in West Haven. In the 7 years since inception, the church has steadily grown from a handful of people, to a solid congregation of believers. Pastor Wayne and Linda Goodall were born and raised in Connecticut.
