Summary
For the last two and half months, my family and I have been serving as Interim Pastors here at De Queen First Assembly. It has been an honor to serve in this capacity.
My family and I have been fasting and praying for God's direction in our lives. I feel a great desire to be considered for the Lead Pastor position here at DFA. We have served at DFA as youth and young adult pastors for 6 and a half years. While serving as youth/young adult pastor, I also assisted Pastor Ray Reynolds in an associate pastor role. We have a deep love and commitment for this church and this community. We believe God has great things in store for De Queen First Assembly of God! I ask that you prayerfully consider and accept my resume for the Lead Pastor position.
