How did the Lord change my life?

The Lord has been a life transforming present in my life. The Lord has made me a better husband, a better father and a better man. Also, the positive way I now react to conflicted, and a love and compassion I have for God’s people. I feel blessed by God’s mercy and grace in my life with a renewed peace with Him, even in trying times and disappointments, which only reaffirms my belief on how much I need the Lord in my daily life.

What led me to become a ministry leader?

From the time that the Lord had virtually saved my life. I gradually came to the conclusion that it had to be for a reason. As I accepted Jesus Christ into my life as my Lord and Savior, I knew that I also needed inner healing from past experiences and to gain understanding of biblical truth. With the studying of God’s Word and the spiritual willingness for me to help others, ultimately I was led into ministry. That I may be allowed to be used by God, to bless others in some small or profound way, giving all to the Glory to God.

My most memorable ministry moment

A few years ago I went to the nursing home to visit a family member who was bedridden. While there I asked if I would be able to have a prayer of salvation with him, knowing that he was not an active Christian. To my delight he did agree. We had a wonderful spiritual conversation about the Lord and his acceptance of Jesus as Lord in his life. We prayed together for his eternal salvation. A great memorable experience, as heaven is rejoicing of another saved soul. Totally unexpectedly, a few days later he went home to be with the Lord. My brother is no longer in the past, he is now in the future.

Something most people don’t know about me

That I am a lover of history. I enjoy watching documentaries or movies that give accurate historical accounts of the past. Especially the periods in time that changed the course of the world. If we don’t know our past mistakes, we are susceptible to repeat them.
