Serving as your District Superintendent is a "homecoming" for Judy and me. We served in the former Barbourville District from 1971-1980, as we moved to Williamsburg in 1971, and to Middlesboro in 1975. Both of our daughters were born in Corbin during our ministry at Williamsburg, so we have a decade of wonderful memories and relationships in this beautiful area of southeastern Kentucky, and as we began our new ministry here in July of 2003, we give ourselves anew to the Lord for His work.

As we travel across the 9 counties in our Corbin District in our ministry of preaching, teaching, praying, helping, encouraging, and supervising, it is a joy to be in ministry with all of you.

"We're not in charge of how you live out the faith, looking over your shoulders (the Greek "lording it over you"), suspiciously critical. We're partners (the Greek "synergists"), working alongside you, joyfully expectant. I know that you stand by your own faith, not by ours."
