Current Ministry
I went to France in 1995 as an appointed Assemblies of God World Missions Missionary. I enrolled as a student at the University of Savoie where in addition to earning three progressive degrees in French literature, I pioneered university ministry from the local Assembly of God Church in Chambéry. In 2002, I moved to Paris at the invitation of French Assemblies of God pastor, Paul Ettori. I now minister as pastor to the university students at Centre Evangélique Philadelphia in Paris. I encourage, motivate, and send out leaders from the 150 students of the local church to evangelize students in the city and the region. Some 600,000 students from around the world live and study in the greater Paris area. I gather students around me, empower leaders, and invest in forming Bible study groups so that Paris’ student population can discover Jesus and His Word.
Previous Ministry
Prior to missionary appointment, I served as assistant to the Potomac District Decade of Harvest director and as administrative assistant to the Potomac District superintendent. I also taught English to foreign students at George Washington University until I left my career to attend Trinity Bible College in the fall of 1988.
