About My Family
My wife and I have been married for 14 years. We have four children: Zion (13), Josiah (12), Eden (10) and Ariel (8). We exist as a family to seek first God’s kingdom and provide a home for healthy community. We are a crazy competitive bunch, so we love sports and board games. If you were to stop by our house on a random afternoon, you would find my kids making movies and trick-shot videos, cooking in the kitchen, crafting or drawing. Maria and I really enjoy volleyball and escape rooms.
We lived just outside Savannah, Ga., for 12 years, spent a couple years in Decatur, Ga., and now live in Aguadilla, Puerto Rico. I’ve completed an Master of Arts degree in Church Planting from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary.

About My Church Plant
During my childhood, my dad was a revivalist with Life Action Ministries. After graduating from Moody Bible Institute, I joined him in that ministry for two years. I was a pastor for 12 years at a church outside of Savannah, Ga., where I served as the youth and worship pastor (3 years), discipleship pastor (4 years) and lead pastor (5 years). God’s recent call for my family has been to move to Aguadilla, Puerto Rico, for church planting.
There are only a couple English-speaking churches in the northwest region of Puerto Rico. We feel called to go there to engage the city, make disciples and to plant a church. We have a heart for the nations and long to bring people together to follow Jesus wholeheartedly. Right now, Send Network, Gospel Hope Church and many other churches are supporting this effort. We would love for you to partner us!

NAMB Church Planting
Millions living in North America have not been reached with the gospel. But a new church makes change possible in an unreached neighborhood.
Send Network church planters immerse themselves in a community, learning the rhythms and culture as they establish relationships with the lost. A church plant grows out of the evangelism efforts of the planter and his core team.
