About me...
I have been in ministry for over 35 years with most of time spent in ministry to teens and young adults. I have the ability to lead groups on weekend retreats or teach seminars on "best practices" for an effective youth ministry. I speak at retreats and conferences on a variety of topics, including biblical teaching. I have also worked as a media director for a large public school district; directed an AV club, produced theatrical productions, and tutored students struggling with homework. I have been part of an after school inner city program to reach out to "at risk" teens; helping them with homework and teaching them life skills. I have traveled extensively into areas of the US that are impoverished on various mission trips; I have led some of those trips. I have spent 6 weeks in New Orleans on clean up and mission work in the months after Hurricane Katrina.
I am now the Pastor of a smaller congregation in Lancaster County.
