Wow! We are delighted to be back in our hometown and serving the Lord right in the place my wife and I were born and raised! While I was in college at the University of South Florida, God was at work in my heart and I eventually surrendered my life to Him. (This is why youth and college people are so dear to me.) As I continued walking in faith in Christ and studying my Bible, I knew the Lord was calling me to full-time ministry because I had my mind set that upon graduating, "I would finish school forever...unless the Lord calls me to seminary." That "unless" has extended far beyond seminary and into a call to become a missionary with the IMB in Uruguay, South America, including many short-term international mission trips around the world, and then unto becoming a catalytic missionary/church planter and pastor in the central Illinois area.
