Date of Baptism: 1960 - Wife's Name: Catherine - Children: Jon-Micah, Camryn and Cress
Year I Joined WPCOC: 1996
Dreams I have for WPCOC: growing in a more perfect image of our Savior Jesus Christ, and as we live together as brother and sister model His life so others may see Christ in us. Also to share the “Good News” with all who will hear it.
Personal Interests/Hobbies: being with my children and grandchildren when possible, “fixing up” around the house with my wife Catherine, ministering to people in need and my great love for Quarter horses.
Favorite Bible Verse: I have several, however, two favorites are Psalm 1; 1-3 “Blessed is the man who walks not in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful; but his delight is in the Lord, and in His law he meditates day and night. He is like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bring forth its fruit in due season, whose leaf also shall not wither and whatsoever he does shall prosper.” I also love the seventeenth Chapter of the Gospel of John.

Favorite Bible Verse: Psalms 100 Shout joyfully to the LORD, all the earth. Serve the LORD with gladness; Come before Him with joyful singing. Know that the LORD Himself is God;
It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. Enter His gates with thanksgiving, And His courts with praise. Give thanks to Him; bless His name. For the LORD is good; His loving kindness is everlasting, And His faithfulness to all generations".

Favorite Bible Verse: 1 Corinthians 13:1-13 If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. And if I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I deliver my body to be burned, but do not have love, it profits me nothing. Love is patient, love is kind, and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails; but if there are gifts of prophecy, they will be done away; if there are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be done away. For we know in part, and we prophesy in part; but when the perfect comes, the partial will be done away. When I was a child, I used to speak as a child, think as a child, reason as a child; when I became a man, I did away with childish things. For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I shall know fully just as I also have been fully known. But now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
