My Story: I moved to Four Corners Maryland when I was 5 years old. I grew up going to church at Marvin Memorial UMC. When I was 17 during a youth retreat, I asked Jesus to be Lord of my life. This was August 1968 just before going away to Stetson University. My first semester at Stetson I read the entire New Testament.

The Holy Spirit has always been leading my life. There are just times when I try to do things my way and mess up. Thank goodness He knew all that upfront and still loves me anyway.

 

Ministry Area: Youth –particularly Middle High; Power Point at the Refuge Worship Service; and Shepherd’s Lay Pastor.

 

Family: Priscilla is my wife and a perfect gift from my Heavenly Father. I have two grown children, Melissa and Jason, and one grandson, Matthew.
