About My Family

My wife, Julie, and I just celebrated 29 years of marriage. We have four grown children; two live at home with us, and two are married and live in separate states. The girls are 22 and 24, and the boys are 26 and 28.

About My Church Plant

We are planting a church in the very diverse southeast community of Encanto in San Diego, Calif. We hope to build many bridges into the homes of this community. The children alone in this community are noted to have experienced a high rate of adverse childhood experiences and trauma.

We hope to have many opportunities to bring the light of Christ into the darkness in which many families are living. 

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.

Pray

Pray for the planter’s family as they work together in ministry. Pray the church will be established and will faithfully work to plant in other communities, too. Pray the Lord brings leaders who can help within the church. Pray for stamina and longevity for ministry amidst attacks from the enemy.

Participate

Build relationships with a church planter, team members and their families. Send notes of encouragement. Learn birthdays and anniversaries, so you can send gifts and cards.
Learn the church plant, its strategy and context, so you can provide relevant resources. Support a church planter financially.
