  Four of the most delightful years of my ministry! Worship attendance reached the highest in the churches 200 year history, mission giving skyrocketed and we bought another campus six miles away in a major growth area of the city. But most importantly we focused on making disciples of Jesus Christ. Four of the most delightful years of my ministry!
