Work History

Senior Pastor

Heavens Gate Missionary Baptist Church
Kent, Washington
05.2023 - Current

As a senior pastor, my role encompassed a blend of spiritual leadership, community engagement, and administrative responsibilities. At the heart of my ministry was the commitment to shepherd my congregation, guiding them through both the joys and challenges of life with compassion and wisdom. Each Sunday, I prepared and delivered sermons that aimed to inspire and challenge, drawing on Scripture to illuminate our shared faith journey.

Beyond the pulpit, I prioritized pastoral care, offering support to individuals and families in times of crisis. Whether through hospital visits, counseling sessions, or simply being a listening ear, I strove to embody Christ’s love in practical ways. I also encouraged church involvement in community service, organizing outreach programs that addressed local needs, fostering a spirit of unity and purpose among our members. Additionally, I managed church operations, working with a dedicated team of staff and volunteers to ensure our ministries flourished. Leadership meetings, strategic planning, and budget oversight kept our mission on track.

Ultimately, my time as a senior pastor is more than a position; it was a calling to nurture faith, foster community, and reflect the teachings of Jesus in everyday life, leaving a lasting impact on both individuals and the broader community.
