About My Family
I am blessed with extremely close friends, siblings and parents. I was raised in the rural Midwest with a love for our rural farming communities, which are forgotten on most church planting maps.
About My Church Plant
I have a heart to see rural farm towns across our nation’s heartland come to Jesus. For several years now, I have had a particular burden for small towns such as Ashley, Ill., that are totally unchurched. This rural town does not have a single church ministering to its residents, nor do any of the surrounding small towns.
The region is an unchurched zone (historically Roman Catholic, now de-churched) that covers most of eastern Washington County. My desire is that a people from Ashley would be saved unto Jesus and organized into a gospel community to the praise of God’s glory.

NAMB Church Planting
Millions in North America are in desperate need of hope. Ultimately, the only hope that’s going to last - in this life and the next - is the hope of the gospel. North American missionaries build relationships and share this hope in their communities and beyond.
