I was raised in the Church of God and saved at the age of 8 and filled with the spirit at 13. I have served in many positions in the church, ranging from nursery worker, Sunday School teacher, piano, organ, and keyboard player, singing with my brother and sister, as well as, singing solos, children's minister, and youth leader. I minister to all age groups. Youth, women, and family. I feel the family is the forgotten member of the church.I believe that God wants to bind families of all ages together to build God's kingdom and make the church stronger. I am a student of Ames International School of Ministry, a memeber of the National Association of Christian Ministers Fellowship, an ordained minister through NACMinisters, a member of NACMinister Leadership Hall, and awaiting acceptance into the Mentoship program through NACMinisters.
