I grew up around the church but not in it and had no concept of the Good News of Jesus. My heart was radically changed by God at a Young Life in the Colorado mountains and I’ve never been the same. I felt the call to ministry in college and have been on staff with Young Life for 10 years, becoming the Area Director of Statesboro/Bulloch Co in the summer of 2019. We joined Fletcher in 2020 and God allows me to use the talents he’s given me to help coordinate Worship.   love Jesus & do ministry alongside my wife Aubri and my two girls Elouise & Lucy
