More about me

I am a retired (inactive) Pastor who has served God since 1970.  Even though I am retired I will still serve God until the day He calls me home.  Now in my life I am free to speak the turth  from the heart and not fear anyone.

 For 3.5 years I served our country in the Air Force Security service. I had one of those jobs that you could not tlak about, but love what I did.  I was blessed to serve during the vietnam conflict but not in Vietnam.

  My life has been that of a trail blazer.  I have held several positions that were the first African American to be in that position.  A difficult life but a rewarding one.  As I look at our generation today I fervently pray that the sacrifices made by myself and others to advance our race has not been in vain.  Young African Americans today take far too much for granted.

Now I can hopefully rest and enjoy life with a very faithful wife.  One who has had to endure more in the name of GOd than most women.  Living in substandard conditions, with violence surrounding her.  All in the name of service to God.  God has blessed her and myself and I hope that He will bless all who read this.
