Don's Story
Life
I was raised in a pastor's family and was provided with a godly example of a father and minister through my father. I accepted the Lord at the young age of four. Even at this young age I was fully aware of my sinfulness and need of a savior (my mom can attest to this sinfulness). I made a decision to follow Jesus and commited my life to him. I later commited my life to full-time service at the age of 14. I became involved in ministry to teens with my peers through working at camps and through involvement in the ministry of Youth for Christ in Rochester, NY. This burden for students continued to burn within me and I began my education at Nyack College in 1984. At Nyack, I majored in psychology with the intent of entering youth work upon completion.
My life verse is Jeremiah 29:11-...Expand for more
14, "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future. {12} Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. {13} You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all of your heart. {14} I will be found by you," declares the Lord." God has used this verse to consul me when I struggled and to spur me when I needed direction. It is so profound that our God has wonderful plans for each of us, that He hears our calls, He listens, and He reveals Himself to us. Our walk of faith is truly about a relationship and not a religion. I praise Jesus daily that these truths are a reality and that His perfect plan has brought me to Allegheny Center Alliance Church in Pittsburgh, PA.
