Summary

Compassionate Pastor with both professional (12 Years) and personal experience (most of my life) working with people through the church and other organizations. I have found that my greatest purpose is in walking with individuals through tragic situations, end of life, and personal trama. I listen first and share as needed. To be present and affirm the feelings of someone grieving or someone who is afraid is a deeply humbling experience.
