About Us – Lincoln County Assembly of God

Pastor Tom Wagers was born in Newport News, VA and grew up in Amity, MO and Baltimore, MD. He graduated from Patterson High School where he participated in cross country and music. His proficiency in music earned him a scholarship to Peabody Conservatory of Music but he believed that God had called him to ministry. His next four years were spent in Northeast Bible Institute, Northeast Bible College and Valley Forge Christian college - all the same school. Once again, he used his musical abilities. In the following years, he ministered as music director/minister, youth and associate pastor in North Carolina, Cape Cod Massachusetts eventually discovering Damariscotta, Maine. Pastor Tom serves Lincoln County Assembly of God and also serves as hospital chaplain at Lincoln County Health Care and with the Lincoln County Sheriff's department and Wiscasset Police. Pastor Tom is married to Carolene, has two daughters - Amy Wagers, music director at St. Paul's in Lexington, MA and Doctor Amanda Wagers. He has a dog named Nutella, a rescue pup from Lincoln County Animal Shelter. His heart and his passion is summed up in a writing of St. Paul, "For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel! I Corinthians 9:16

Jan has made 7 trips to Uganda over the last eight years as her part of the Hope and Mercy Mission. She has been part of the medical outreach with home visits and regular basic health clinics. One of her favorite parts is always the sharing and teaching with the local midwives, an ongoing joy and upgrading for all involved. She occasionally gets to speak at one of the churches in the village area. If any one would like more information about these mission trips, Jan is willing to speak to interested groups.

Our Nursery is open and spacious with lots of windows, toys and books. Favorites include the step on musical “piano” where the children can make their own music, the sponge building blocks, story books and the multiple ride on toys. We have lots of wide open space for active little ones. The children are able to watch Mom and Dad on the TV monitor return to their seats. This seems to give them a sense of security and they get very excited to point out anyone they know. We encourage them to clap and dance to the Praise and Worship music and say a short little prayer before snack time. I haven’t had a child cry in about a year when Mom and Dad drop them off. They feel safe, eager and happy to be in Nursery. Parents can easily be paged on their cell phones (on vibrate) should their child need them. There are two nursery workers scheduled each Sunday during church. We have a dozen Nursery Volunteers who cherish and enjoy these youngsters. They are a blessing and it is a lovely way to get to know our young families when they drop off and pick up their newborn to 4 year olds. At age 4 they graduate to Children’s Church ~ we sure miss them when they do.
