Raised Traditional Roman Catholic, saved in 1998 after a painful divorce, sex, drugs and rock n' roll nearly killed me. I have since become an active member of a evangelical Christian church, praise team, prison ministry, and my pursuit is now in servitude of the Lord. I remarried in 2001 to Nancy, a Godly woman, and Karis was born last year. I thank the Lord Jesus Christ for coming and saving me in my hour of need, and hope that my life will reflect my gratitude for Him. I await the day to see Him face to face... |
