I am glad to be a part of New Hope Baptist Church. My wife, Melissa and two daughters, Madolyn and Macy and I began our ministry here on June 4th, 2007. I was born and raised in Pekin, IL and left there to serve in the United States Army for four years at Ft. Rucker, AL. I previously served as a children’s pastor and youth pastor before coming to New Hope as senior pastor. I am a graduate of the Baptist College of Florida and currently completing a Masters of Divinity degree from Liberty University. I am also a chaplain candidate in the Army National Guard.
