Salvation and Christian Experience

I am Saved. I Accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior, and at the age of 20 was Baptized at Calvary Baptist Church in Wichita Kansas. After moving to Georgia and experiencing it, I married, and my family and I became active members of Mother Easter Baptist Church in 1989 and are currently members. I was trained and ordained a Deacon in 1993 and served as chairman of the Deacon board in 1999 for 2 years. I have served as a musician and a minister of music for 4 church choirs monthly for over 30 years. In addition, I have been a part of the music ministry of the Shiloh Baptist Church, Tifton, Georgia, Gospel Choir since 2003-current. I have been a youth director, teacher, and mentor. On September 9th, 2007, I answered the call to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and was licensed to preach, and became an associate minister, all under the leadership of Rev. Emory H. Hopkins. I gained knowledge and have shared the gospel with many since the call was answered. I preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ in and out of the church sanctuary. This includes morning or evening church service, guest preaching, hospitals, nursing facilities, and senior centers. I have been Ordained by the National Association of Christian Ministers and am verified member in good standing, so I may continue the work of Jesus without the constraint of man. I am well known in the community in which I currently work and serve, (since 1989) here in Georgia. My continuing Christian education comes from the National Association of Christian Ministers (NACM), and personal studies. God called me to preach His Word. I accepted His calling after asking Him to speak to me directly from His word. He answered my prayer directly by showing me 1 Samuel 3, which became my licensing sermon!
