Ministry Assignment:

I've served as Director of Finance at Asian Access since August 1999.

Hoping for "ultimate contributions"...

Working with the youth of my church has been awesome! Their enthusiasm and desire to seek God's will for their lives is an encouragement to me.

What I've learned here...

• To continually rely on the Lord's grace and power to accomplish the impossible.
• To rejoice in my weaknesses and allow the Lord to perfect His power through them.

How is God blessing your life and ministry?

• By surrounding me with people who are loving, encouraging and supportive.
• By enabling me to see His handiwork in everyday things and events.
• By seeing more of the youth I work with become serious about their commitment to the Lord and growing in their love for Him and one another.
