  • My Ministry Calling: After many years in a secular career as a scientist and administrator I felt called by God to minister to children and families. For me, bringing Jesus' message of hope, peace, and love to children is one of most important things that we can do in the church. I also believe that parents are partners in teaching the God's story to their children.

  • My Relationship with Christ: I was raised in a small rural church in upstate New York. Through my years in college I drifted away from God and really didn't have a relationship with Christ for about 20 years. In the trials and struggles of life I regained the blessings of a relationship with Jesus.
