A WORD FROM THE PASTOR
Hello & Welcome!
Over 25 years ago, God Himself pulled me out of a lifestyle that was leading me towards destruction - physically, spiritually and emotionally. Through the work of Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit, I have experienced the grace and the abounding mercy of God as my life has been put back together for His Glory. Oh, He’s not done with me yet! But it is through this “work in progress” that I graduated from Elim Bible College and married my wife, Sherrie. God has blessed us blessed us with seven children, and together Sherrie and I have been in full time ministry for 20 years, serving in many ministry opportunities and capacities of Church life.
It is with great excitement that my wife and I now pastor Grace In Community Church. The Lord has blessed us with a fantastic team in which we have truly experienced “Grace In Community”. The Lord has blessed us with a heart to serve people, and He has blessed us with a gift mix to reach, disciple & release people for the work of the ministry.
It is our heart in these last days to make a significant difference in, and upon, our culture - to impact our generation with the purposes of God.
Early in our call to ministry, God promised that He would use me to influence people with the supernatural presence of the Holy Spirit. We believe and anticipate signs and wonders to follow and confirm the Word spoken to us many years ago.
It truly is a blessing and an honor to serve the Grace In Community Church family and reach out and influence our community with the reality and Truth of Jesus Christ.
For the glory of Jesus Christ, it is our vision and life goal to "Know God and make Him Known!"
