Titus 1:6

Thanksgiving:

Titus 1:6
An elder must be blameless, the husband of but one wife, a man whose children believe and are not open to the charge of being wild and disobedient.

I have had many pastors and their wives to be thankful for over the years. They have taught me so very much. 2 Uncles and their wonderful wives, taught me many aspects of hospitality and prayer.

At Calvary Baptist I learned and fall in love with the word of God. This is also where I first felt the leading of God to go into the ministry.

At Tri-City Baptist Church we grew as a family and moved forward with lots of love and support onto our calling of ministry.

At SunCoast Baptist we learned how to grow up and rely on God. We also learned how important it is to have people around you that understand were you are at in life. We learned how to became better leader in the church through communication and giving others the sense of belonging.

I am so very thankful for all the lesson that have been learned in the first 40 year of my life in all the different ways God has allowed them. I would not change anyone of them along the way. God has given all of them a special place in my life.
