I am an associate pastor of The United Methodist Church of the Saviour in Cleveland Heights, Ohio.  I also serve as the pastor of a ministry called Catalyst -a church experience for people who don’t like church.

LostandFound is a new unofficial organization started by my wife, Amanda.  It is an avenue through which others may gain an awareness of the evil of human trafficking.  In addition to the website, Amanda travels throughout the state of Ohio giving presentations on Human Trafficking Awareness.

We sponsor a student and family, Lens Noel and the Noel family.  Lens is a second grade student at Sonlight Academy in Port-de-Paix, Haiti.  Madame Gilbert Noel, Lens’ mother, was a teachers aide for me when I taught the 5th grade class for three years at Sonlight Academy.  Believe it or not, Madame Gilbert’s son just happened to be assigned to us for support.  It is a relationship we hope to see through for the rest of our lives.
