     The journey of Rev. Dr. Lyle Lee to Madkins Chapel CPCA began when the Church Session/Pastoral Search Committee introduced him to the congregation. Following several weeks of teaching, preaching, and meaningful fellowship with the members, the church prayerfully discerned the will of God and affirmed Rev. Dr. Lee as the next Pastor of Madkins Chapel. On November 2, 2025, he preached his first sermon as Pastor-Elect of Madkins Chapel. Subsequently, on May 31, 2026, the Huntsville Presbytery of the CPCA formally installed him as Pastor. God has continued to bless the ministry of Rev. Dr. Lyle Lee and Madkins Chapel. Through faithful preaching, discipleship, and outreach, new believers continue to be added to the fellowship, and the church remains encouraged by the Lord’s ongoing work in its midst.
