PHILOSOPHY OF MINISTRY & LIFE: I am broken, not slightly scarred or badly bent but simply broken. My daily journey is filled with ups and downs but at all times I try to remember that God’s grace is more than I deserve, and for that I should always be singing and praising! Worship has so many forms and is so personal to each believer. I always strive to make sure that as a body, we are preparing our hearts to meet God each Sunday in new and exciting ways.
