Leadership

Thank you for letting me introduce myself to you.  I have been the pastor of Windsor Gardens Church since May 15, 2023, and it has been a wonderful experience.

​

I received Jesus Christ as my Savior when I was 14 years old, and it has been an exciting journey of growing in Christ and serving Him with the gifts He has given me.  Not long after coming to faith, I began to sense that God was calling me to ministry.  After graduating from the University of Sioux Falls and then working for several years, I attended Fuller Theological Seminary where I received my Masters of Divinity Degree.  I followed that up with a Doctor of Ministry Degree from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary.

​

It has been my joy and privilege to be pastor of several churches in the United States, and four international, English-speaking churches in Bolivia, Venezuela, Malaysia, and Switzerland.  The Body of Christ includes people from every nation, and to me it is so exciting to serve with and learn from fellow believers from a variety of backgrounds.  My passion is to help people deepen their relationship with Christ, or to begin that relationship if they have not already done so.

​

I married my wife, Daniela, in 1984 in her home country of Romania.  She is a joyful and devoted follower of Jesus.  God has blessed us with two children and four grandchildren – so far!

​

Now that you know something about me, I hope I will have the opportunity to get to know you!
