Lee Warden serves Methodist Churches as pastor
-
By Ashley Wandell
Some of you may have heard about the new pastor at the First Methodist Church in Barksdale and Rocksprings, but for those who have not, here’s a few basic facts about him. His name is Lee Warden. Warden was born in Fredericksburg, Texas and moved to Junction, Texas when he was 13. Warden graduated from Junction High School and proceeded into the Army where he maintained for 6 years. After the Army he came back to Junction where he now lives with his wife of 20 years.
Warden and his wife have three children; one son in the 4th grade, a daughter in the 8th grade and the oldest son is currently in the Army about to complete Basic Training in August. He is the 4th generation to be in the military.
Warden’s preaching career began as a youth director in Junction, which he did for 6 years. He had felt the calling to continue to full-time ministry for a while and started the process to becoming a pastor in January of 2010. He was placed in his first appointment here in Rocksprings as a part-time pastor last June.
Warden claims “it is an honor to be here” and he is anxious to see where God takes him from here. Warden still resides in Junction while commuting to Barksdale and Rocksprings for Sunday worship services and working at TxDOT in Junction.
Being, what they call, a local pastor or part-time pastor, Warden may stay a long time or a short time, although pastors are usually appointed for a 3 year term.
While staying busy, Warden enjoys football and working with his hands.
