Church work activites

I have had the privilege in knowing and trusting in Jesus Christ's redemptive work on the cross and love being involved at church. I enjoy an environment that fosters a good work/life balance. God has allowed me to teach Sunday School classes, lead singing, usher both seating people and taking up the offering and tithes as well as counting the offering and depositing monies. God has allowed me to be a  church deacon, church trustee, VBS worker, bus worker, bus driver, camp worker/counselor, Addiction ministry Director/counselor, choir member, soloist, actor and allowed me to preach a few times although I'm not very good at that. 

I am glad for the grace God has given to me over the years to be able to serve others and thereby serve Him. I certainly have not attained or arrived but am still on a spiritual journey. I am very thankful for what God has accomplished in my life. I am still learning and growing in the Lord and in grace.

I also enjoy attending Men's Retreats/Advances, Holiness conferences, missions conferences, camp meetings, and weekend retreats throughout the year where good Bible preaching is available. I also like to take mission trips both in the USA and abroad as available.
