For some that may see this post, this is news, and for others, it is not. We must recognize that ministry is never about us. It is a submissive call to be obedient to wherever God calls and leads. I am reminded at the fact that wherever God guides, He will also provide! The past several days have been a physical and emotional roller coaster for my family and I. All leading up to this very announcement. God has a way of doing things that simply blow our minds and will have you asking the question, "God, are you for real?" And His reply is simply, "Yes." With that being said, I answered God's call on my life and next chapter in ministry. I am humbled, honored, and excited to announce that the God we serve is leading me to accept the call to be the new Pastor-Elect at Ninth Street Missionary Baptist Church, Covington KY. I am grateful that in the next few weeks, transition will begin. God will finish writing this current chapter at Uttingertown Missionary Baptist Church, turn the page and start writing a new one. The Apostle Paul wrote in Philipians 3:14, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Meet me in Covington.

Pastor - Elect
