Rev. Dr. Maner Tyson, MSW
Wife: Rhonie Black-Tyson, ACSW, LCSW
Dogs (Bichon Frise): Bailey and Bentley

Maner and Rhonie started Waterbury Baptist Ministries in July of 1992. Since that time Pastor Maner has enjoyed watching the church develop into a caring diverse congregation. Because his own calling to ministries has roots in volunteer ministries he did as a college student, Maner enjoys supervising volunteers. Whether long or short term, far away or just down the block, Pastor Maner has seen volunteers find a sense of God’s calling and direction as they worked at WBM. As the church and its ministries grow, Maner and Rhonie are committed to developing the small town memories of community they experienced growing up in North Carolina and Tennessee.
