While he has not attended “preacher’s school”, his great joy would be to deserve similar recognition accorded to Peter and John in Acts 4:13b, ”they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus”. Mike is a recipient of the Global University Teaching Certificate for the Christian Service Curriculum, has been a male guide in the pro-life activities of the South Texas Pregnancy Care Center, serves in the local food pantry, led a small group for 7+ years, a part of youth ministry since 1998, consistently taught the word since 2000, and continuously involved in children’s ministry since 2002. Missionary trips to Jamaica, Kenya and Mexico hyper-intensified his compassion. He and his wife Cindy are gifted with four delightful daughters, Denise, Diana, Crystal, and Brooke, 6 grandchildren, and 1 great-grandchild. Mike and Cindy currently live in Seguin, Texas, but eagerly anticipate the construction of a Spirit-directed “Oasis” in Sutherland Springs, Texas with their 1 dog & 1 cat.view less
