Club History

The Association of Christian Treasure Searchers metal detecting club started on March 6, 2001. We started with six people from Adult III Sunday School Class of Grawood Baptist Church in Keithville, Louisiana, and two friends of class members. Charter members of our club are Alton Braddock, Jack Huffman, Jimmy McWilliams, Bob Overby, Henry Payne, Charles Permenter, Ronnie Pullen, and Mack Weaver. Our first monthly meetings were held in members' homes.
Our June 2001 meeting was held at Stonewall Community Park. Keith Wills was our guest speaker, and 18 people attended this meeting. Keith gave an interesting presentation that really helped in motivating our club.

Our Club Today

Our club has approximately 20 active members. At our meetings we have good food, fun, and fellowship. Our club has a friendly Find of the Month competition, and many of our meetings include outside guest speakers who make excellent presentations on a variety of topics related to historical research and metal detecting.

We have club hunts to various sites including beaches, parks, fairgrounds, and trade day sites. We either take picnic lunches or eat at local dining facilities.

The Association of Christian Treasure Searchers invites you to join us. We have truly found the greatest treasure imaginable. This treasure requires no digging. This treasure is a free gift. John 3:16 states, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
Eternal life is the greatest treasure anyone could possibly obtain. The only way to obtain it is to accept it as a free gift. A gift paid for with the blood of Jesus Christ, God's Son, who was crucified for you and me on an old rugged cross. You can have the gift of eternal life by asking Jesus, in a simple prayer, to forgive you of your sins and be your Lord and Saviour. If you haven't secured your eternity in heaven, we invite you to do so right now.
