Favorite Scripture: Romans 7:16-17 “And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. As it is, it is no longer myself who do it, but it is sin living in me.”
Testimony: I was raised in church, but dedicated my life to Christ when I was 12 years old at a youth outing called “Snowblast” It was a 3 night event in upper Michigan, and on the third night during the altar call I decided that I really wanted to fall in love with Jesus.

Favorite Scripture: Isaiah 40:31 “But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.”
Great Ministry Moment at LPC? The first time hearing children pray for their parents and our church. There is beauty and power in children praying to the Father.

Favorite Quote: “You can’t outgive the Lord!” (See Luke 6:38 and Acts 20:35).
Life Scripture: “He must increase; I must decrease” (John 3:30)
Testimony: May 31, 1958 at First Assembly of God in Hammond (in the old building) before they moved south and became known as the Gate. I became a Christian at a revival meeting while the late Rev. Gordon H. and Marie Matheny served as lead pastors. The evangelist had a problem and could not be there so I was saved through the preaching of a guest minister.
