My Testimony
I was born and raised in Western New York.

I was born and raised in Western New York. Following my graduation from Akron High School, I joined the United States Navy where I served honorably for 6 years as an electronics technician including service in Viet Nam aboard the USS Benjamin Stoddert , the last ship to depart Viet Nam at the end of the war.
During my service in the Navy the Lord made my need for a Savior clear and on July 8, 1978 I was saved in a small Independent Baptist Church in Portsmouth, Virginia.
Following my naval service I attended Baptist Bible Institute East in Shrub Oak New York and also attended and graduated from Elohim Bible Institute in Castile, New York.
For 18 years the Lord allowed me to use the resources of a small business which I started to support service to churches without pastors. In 2015 after retiring from business the Lord allowed me to pastor Folsomdale Baptist Church in Cowlesville, New York.
The Lord has blessed me with a wife of 47 years, three sons and eight grandchildren.
