Husband’s Hometown: Essex Junction, Vermont

Wife’s Hometown: Valdosta, Georgia

Story of how we met:

My wife and I met at Bob Jones University. We went to a few classes together (both as Bible majors), but we did not get to know each other until our Junior year of college. We went on the same outreach ministry together and served together at a church in North Carolina. We both grew in our love for ministry as well as our love for one another. We are thankful that God brought us together and that He allows us to joyfully serve Him together as a couple.

Salvation Testimony:

I prayed a prayer of salvation when I was 6 years old, but did not fully understand what I was praying at such a young age. As a teenager, God used an evangelist to show me that I was not prepared to go to heaven. God graciously worked in my life, and I trusted fully in the work of Jesus Christ to save me. I am continually thankful for the way God is changing me to become more like Jesus Christ.

Call to Ministry:

God worked in my life as a teenager to show me that He could use faithful and devoted servants to encourage and help other believers. Throughout my college years, God reassured my call to the ministry by giving me a joy and desire to preach, teach, and minister to others. I am thankful for Godly examples in my life that remind me of the blessings of living for Jesus Christ.

Colleges Attended:

Bob Jones University. Graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Youth Ministries in 2012.

Maranatha Baptist Seminary: Graduated with a Master’s degree in Biblical Studies in 2014.

Final Thoughts:

My wife and I are blessed to serve at this ministry, and we are grateful for the opportunity to do the Lord’s work in Jacksonville to the praise of His glory.
