Ministry Philosophy

In a world where there are multiple things reaching out for our kids’ attention, they need to know what attractions are good, healthy, and godly. Through providing children with opportunities to serve others, encounter God, and deepen their spiritual walks, we will empower children to live godly Christian lives. Kids will experience God for themselves in a unique and real way, so that they may have the power and tools necessary to make the right choices in this world.

Objective

It is my aim to be in a place of full-time ministry through which my wife and I can support and raise a family, impact the lives of children, develop healthy relationships with a loving church family, and grow with the support of those around me.

Christian Experience

I was saved at the age of five years old, and followed Christ’s command to be baptized in water at the age of ten. I have been baptized in the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues since I was twelve years old. I continue to grow in Christ each day through personal prayer, reading the Bible, and fellowship with other Christians.
