     I was born and raised in the Columbus, Ohio vicinity.  I was privileged to be raised in church and to have a great heritage that proceeded me.  I was married to my wife Colleen, in July of 1983.  We recided in the Grove City Area where we attended Grove City Apostolic Church, pastored by Rev. Paul Brown.  In 1987, Colleen and I felt it to be the Lord's will to move to Jackson County to help, in whatever capacity we could, in a small church in Wellston.  We relocated in the spring of 1988, with our two sons, Seth (three years old) and Zachary (six months old).  It has been a great blessing to see our sons grow and develop their own personal relationship with God.  They now serve in various ministries of this assembly.  Recently we were blessed with a beautiful daughter-in-law, Angela who now serves with our son, Seth, as Youth Leaders.

     Over the years I have served in the Ministry as Deacon, Youth Leader, and New Converts Director.  I currently serve as an Elder and the Department Head of our Men's Ministry, The Marksmen.  Men connecting with God and other men is a challenge in our society but one that I feel is worthy to be fought for.  It is my endeavor to be the catalyst in the process.
