Feel free to review the rest of my
web page, but this section is designed primarily for pastors or
mission coordinators; those leaders that have a burden to
fulfill the Great Commission by sending missionaries such as myself
to where the lost and needy people are.
Ministry Goals
My goal is to be the most effective servant that I can on the mission
field. God has called me to serve Him and I am going make myself as
usable to Him as I can. The following are not things I guarantee to
accomplish they are simply things I am asking God to do through me.
Looking back in 5 years I may see that I haven’t accomplished any of
these goals, however I beg God to let me see that I have accomplished
much for Him, whether it was on this list or not.

all I meet

Ministry Philosophy
I go to Perú not to teach English or American culture, not to send
nationals to America to live or study, but to adapt myself to their
culture and their language to be most effective in reaching them. I will
work along side church planters to help in the planting of churches pastored by trained nationals. I will seek out the poor and unreached
where they are and not sequester myself in the city or missionary
compound. I will have as my goal not to start anything that does not
have the goal of being one day taken over by a Peruvian national. I will
seek to work myself out of a job, helping to establish a work, which
would go on if I should die or be forced to leave. I will strive
wholeheartedly to avoid creating dependency, starting ministries that
can go on without the presence or financial support of the missionaries.
