Welcome and thanks for visiting our website!
The Royal Palm Network/Association of Churches, is a family of Southern Baptist Churches in Lee, Collier, and Hendry counties in beautiful southwest Florida. With just over 100 churches, we have a missional heart and purpose to help God’s people grow in the Lord and reach the community with the gracious gospel of Jesus Christ.
Our strategy is to: 1) Strengthen churches; 2) Plant churches; and 3) Activate churches, which I offer through personal consultation, weekly email updates called Quick Notes, equipping the saints through multi-media training guides, podcasts, and videos , and personally spreading the gospel through books, music, a monthly newspaper column, weekly radio broadcast, and a 3-minute daily devotional video called Helping You Hear God (click: markpg.org , then click “Subscribe today” in the red box).
With over 35 years in pastoral ministry, church planting, and broadcasting (Kingdom 91.5 FM, Sat. at 8 a.m.), and Jennifer Horton’s 32 years as the administrative assistant here at Royal Palm, we are here to serve and encourage you as your “first call” for any ministry crisis, need, or strategic initiative that may arise.
Blessed to serve the Lord with you,
Mark Gonzales,
Exec. Director/AMS (Associational Mission Strategist)
