I am honored to serve the Lord as an elder and with all CBC ministries directly affecting children from birth through 6th grade.  This includes Nursery, Roots, JAM, Preteen Youth Group, Upward Sports and VBS.  I also assist with administrative and IT/Technology needs as needed.

 

I have a B.S. in Music Education from Penn State and have done graduate work in Music Education and Educational Technology.  I am so grateful for the solid foundational teaching that God has blessed me with over the years and from the godly mentors, especially Lynn Wheeler and Henry Johnson, that have discipled me through adulthood.

 

Following a 16 year career as a music educator, where I also led extracurricular Bible studies for students in the East Lycoming School District, I followed the Lord’s guidance to enter children’s ministry full-time in 2013.  Before serving full-time, I also was the Sunday School Superintendent at CBC.  While I value greatly my time in the public schools, I believe God was using all my experiences in public education to use me for this greater purpose.

 

Heidi and I have been married since 1996.  We have 3 children, one of whom is married, one is in college and one still school-aged.  We currently live near Loyalsockville.  I believe we live in one of the most beautiful areas in the world and I enjoy spending time with my family in God’s creation, fishing, hiking, hunting and camping.
