Tell us about your journey to becoming a Campus Missionary:

I moved to Missouri in 2021 to become Pastor at Solid Rock Baptist Church in Linn Mo. I also started working at State Tech and then started a Bible Study at my church. I learned about LCF and was asked to lead Bible Studies on campus. I recently moved on to another job but continue to do Bible Studies at the school. It’s been a amazing 4 years at LCF.

What do you love about doing ministry on your campus?

I enjoy see the students growing closer to God. And their excitement to share the gospel with other students.

Tell us about yourself and your family:

My wife Tonia and I have been married for over 25 years now. We have three amazing kids, two girls and one boy. We have lived in Florida, Texas, and now Missouri doing God’s Ministry. I was a Youth Pastor for over 20 years before being called in the Pastoral role. Where I have been at my church for going on four years..

What do you hope to see happen on your campus/within your ministry in the next few years?

I pray that God will move in a mighty way and that not only does our ministry grow, but the Kingdom of God grows too.

What are some of the things your ministry does?

We have a weekly on-campus Bible study and sponsor 1 or 2 campus activities a semester. We are planning on do a revival and praise/worship nights on campus next year.
