Juniata County CPYM

I'm a graduate of East Juniata High School and a life-long resident of Juniata County.  I've been involved in youth ministry since 1993 and joined CPYM in 2011.  I live in Thompsontown with my wife and 2 kids, and attend Locust Run UMC.  My passion is working with teens and aiding them on their daily walk with God.  Some of my favorite things are traveling, kayaking, football (Seattle Seahawks), baseball (Baltimore Orioles), woodworking, riding 4-wheelers and 80's rock music.  My dislikes are road construction, most vegetables and rap music (my apologies to hip-hop fans, but yuck!).  

I am also a huge geek when it comes to super heroes (DC comics, Marvel movies), Star Wars, Transformers and all other sorts of nerdy stuff!  I also have my CDL and drive school bus when I'm needed.

I believe the Holy Bible is the instruction manual for human life.  Without it in our lives, we are wandering aimlessly, never unlocking the full potential God created us to have.  It might sound like a simple verse, but I love Phillipians 4:13:  I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.  Whatever it is you are struggling with.  No matter what situation  the world has put you in.  All of it can be overcome through Christ.  

Thank you for visiting our site and we appreciate your prayers and support as we work to bring the message of Christ to the teens of Juniata County.
