PERSONAL STATEMENT
I believe in Jesus Christ as my Savior and Lord. I am
called of God to serve Him and His people. My
deepest desire is to spread the Word of God and
equip God’s people for the work of the ministry. I
believe the call of ministry is also a call to prepare
one’s self for ministry. God has gifted me in the areas
of evangelism, leadership, administration, and caring
for people. Ministry is also investing or pouring
myself out into the lives of others as to facilitate their
nurturing and maturing in the Christian life.
