Steven Harrelson
Boston,VA
Summary
My name is Steven Harrelson and my family and I just finished celebrating God's goodness in 20 years of local church ministry. After serving in our present ministry for the last (going on 10 years), we feel the Lord has a new chapter that He is about to open for the next 20 years. If you have any questions or would like to get to know us further, feel free to contact me. Blessings!
