Roman 10:15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? As it is written, how beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
I placed my trust in Christ for salvation at the age of 10 at Trinity Baptist Church in Tarboro, NC. My relationship with Christ continued to grow through Sunday school and bible study. During my college years, I began serving Jesus Christ through the Baptist Student Union at UNCW as Church Outreach Leader. I had the opportunity to work with several churches in planning youth retreats and lock-ins. Through this opportunity, God brought my wife, Marietta, into my path. Togethe,r we served Christ by planning bible studies and youth activities. Marietta placed her trust in Christ for salvation at the age of 12 during a revival at Shell Point Baptist Church in Shallotte, NC. Her relationship with God continued to grow through her bible study and prayer life. God began to really prepare her for service with children’s ministry in high school by teaching in VBS. She continued to diligently serve the Lord throughout her college years in the Baptist Student Union at UNCW. In 2001 Marietta and I were married at Scott’s Hill Baptist Church. That same year the Lord opened the opportunity for us to be Awana Commanders at Scott’s Hill Baptist Church. We rejoiced as children came to know, love and serve the Lord Jesus Christ through the Awana ministry. The Lord burdened our hearts to reach more boys and girls with the gospel of Jesus Christ. In fall of 2005, God called us to be Awana missionaries. It is amazing how God could use us to accomplish His mission of expanding his kingdom. In October of 2006 God blessed us with our first child Anna Leigh. During October, we were also accepted as Awana missionaries to Eastern NC. God is continuing to bless us through the ministry and by watching Anna grow. We are currently in the process of raising our support and looking forward to partnering with churches in helping children and youth to know, love and serve the Lord Jesus Christ. |
