About My Family

My wife and I have been married for 14 years. We have four children: Zion (12), Josiah (11), Eden (9) and Ariel (7). 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. We are now living in the metro Atlanta area as we prepare to plant a church in Aguadilla, Puerto Rico.

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. Maria and I met in Life Action and afterward moved to Guyton, Ga., in 2010. For a total of 12 years I served as the youth pastor/worship leader (3 years), the discipleship pastor (4 years) and the lead pastor (5 years) for One Savior Church.

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.
