Mulligan Family
Email Pastor Mulligan
Pastor
Mulligan was born in St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada, but lived
the majority of his life in southern Florida. He lived in Ft.
Lauderdale where he rode the bus to First Baptist Church of West
Hollywood under Dr. Verle Ackerman. This 6-year old child
immediately accepted Jesus as his Savior and obeyed God in
Believer’s baptism.
Though he
felt the tug of God on his heart, Pastor Mulligan was never well
grounded in the faith nor attended church very often. Instead,
as a young man, he ran from God.
After many
trials and chastisements, Pastor Mulligan succumbed to God’s
calling and surrendered his will to preach, March 22, 1994, at
Pastor School in Indiana. Pastor Mulligan was ordained by Dr.
Jack Hyles, at First Baptist Church of Hammond, Indiana, and
received a General Studies diploma.
Pastor
Mulligan now holds a Bachelor’s Degree from Landmark Baptist
College, a Master of Divinity from Great Plains Baptist Divinity
School, and a Doctor of Divinity from Bethany Theological
Seminary.
He currently
is the pastor of Grace Baptist Church in Miami, Fl. This is his
third pastorate. Pastor Mulligan pastored Central Baptist Church
in East Chicago, Indiana, Victory Baptist Church in Ft. Myers,
Florida and served as a chaplain for the Army at Fort Sill,
Oklahoma.
God has
greatly used Pastor Mulligan in all areas of his ministries and
many souls have been led to Christ, baptized and lives changed
forever.
Paul Provost, Assistant
Pastor
Paul Provost was born in the
Florida Keys in 1965. His family moved to central Florida in 1970. After his
mother’s death in 1974 he moved back to the Keys to live with his
grandparents. At the age of ten he went through the motions of a conversion
but did not accept Christ as his Savior. His father remarried in 1977 and
Bro. Provost moved back to central Florida. In his teen years he drifted
away from church and was drawn to worldly pleasures.
At the age of nineteen a new leaf
was turned over and a moral life was lived including church attendance and
Christian service. In the fall of 1987 Bro. Provost started attending
Atlantic Baptist Bible College. He was saved the following school year in
November. In July of 1989 he married Cindy, and had his first child,
Rachael, one year later. Upon graduating in May of 1991 he moved to Miami,
began attending Grace Baptist Church and working in the Christian day
school. His second child, Ruthanne, was born in 1993.
He has led Sunday school classes
from Juniors to Adults with most of the time spent working with teens. He is
now assisting Pastor Mulligan in reaching people through the ministries of
Grace Baptist Church.

Alex Flores was born in
Guatemala City, Guatemala. He moved to Niagara Falls,
Canada, in 1991 and was saved and baptized at Bible Baptist
Church. In March 22nd of 1994 he surrendered his life to
God under the preaching of Dr. Jack Hyles. While in
Niagara Falls, Alex worked as a bus worker for Chester Mulligan,
who was his bus captain. Both Mr. Mulligan and Alex
surrendered to preach at Pastor's School in 1994. Alex now
works for Pastor Mulligan at Grace Baptist Church as an
Assistant Pastor, and office manager. What a small world!
At the age of eighteen this
young man attended Hyles-Anderson College where he met his wife

Alexis, and Amberly Ann. Mr. Flores served at First
