I find great joy in preaching, making the sacred stories of our faith come alive and relevant to today’s world in meaningful ways. Pastoral care is a cornerstone of my ministry, providing empathy, support, and spiritual guidance during times of need. Whether visiting someone in the hospital, offering counseling, or simply being present during a difficult time, pastoral care is about being the hands and feet of Jesus to those in need. Innovation, more specifically collaborative innovation, is another passion I bring to my ministry. Collaborative innovation not only brings about new ways to be church, but it also builds relationships and empowers others to take part in ministry.
