Snow Camp,NC

Summary

I have retired and want to stay sharp. I enjoy writing a daily blog and I journal. I also enjoy working with people. For the past 30 years, I was a visionary within the organization that my wife and I founded. I was a problem-solver, and was successful in implementing plans to meet current and future needs. The annual budget was $350,000.00 per year. The organization is a 501(c) non profit.


We built a missionary village consisting of 15 homes on a 33 acre campus and raised over 8 million dollars.


Upon retirement, the ministry was debt free.
