Meet the Pastor & His Family:  
Reverend Francis Warren and his family moved to West Plains in late September, 2001 to pastor Cornerstone Church of the Nazarene. 

Prior to moving to here, he served as Youth Pastor in Burlington, Iowa.  He graduated from Mid-America Nazarene University in 1994 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Religion.  He also has a law enforcement and military background.  Pastor Warren enjoys spending time with his family, music, and sports.  

Blenda Warren is a loving and supportive wife and mother.  She is a Registered Nurse specializing in cancer care and treatment.  Blenda is very dedicated to her family, the church and her job. Without her love and support, the ministry would not be possible or effective.  Blenda enjoys spending time with her family, music, crafts and reading.  

Jordan and Emily are Francis and Blenda’s two very energetic and fun-loving children. They love playing outdoors, singing, and asking lots of questions!  

We hope you will consider visiting us at Cornerstone. We would love to make you a part of our family.
