Personal Call and Statement of Salvation
I was raised in a non-church environment. By the age of 14 I began using
drugs and consuming alcohol. I grew up in a difficult neighborhood where I
was picked on and bullied for many years. At the age of 19 a friend of my
family shared the gospel with me and I received Christ. I began serving in
the church and working at a local men's home and homeless shelter. It was
during this time that I began to sense a call on my life to pastoral
ministry. This is where I started on a proactive path toward Christian
leadership training, Pastoral care training, Doctrinal education, and the
preaching of the Gospel message. I have been steadfast in the faith ever
since this start. Under the supervision and charge of wonderful elders and
Pastors, I have grown tremendously in faith and practice. Subsequently, my
hope is built on nothing less than Jesus Christ and His righteousness.
