I run a local ministry at a nursing home on a weekly basis. I am a graduate of a Bible School, with friends on the African, Indian and American continents. I have college background in religion and philosophy, and I have found the most comprehensive way to living life is through faith in the Lord Jesus.
My Ideal Person:
I'm looking for someone with whom I can either have a mental or spiritual connection, and then develop from there.

Please describe your faith. How important is your faith to you?
My aim is to balance faith with reason. Faith is indispensable, but reason is necessary to implement one's faith in one's life.
Which Scripture verses are most important to you?
Jeremiah 29:11 was very important to me to make me understand that God was for me, not against me.
Why is a Christian relationship so important to you?
The Christian relationship is rooted in the One who gave up His life for us. It might be difficult to base a relationship on something other than that understanding.
Where did you grow up? Where have you traveled? What are some of your favorite places to visit?
I traveled to Haiti twice in 2009, it was a great spiritual experience, but living conditions were difficult!
What are your favorite activities both at Church and outside?
I have a nursing home ministry at which I preach every week. I come up with a new sermon and material every week, and it helps me to conceptualize my life in spiritual terms as I share my insights about my faith with others. Although I receive no money for doing the Lord's work, my reward is in building up the lives of those seniors, and in reaping the love of those about whom I care.
What is your day like? Describe your daily routine.
I spend time on the computer working on websites. Sometimes I'll listen to lectures or online courses. When I go out, it's usually to shop or to minister.
What are some of your personal and spiritual goals?
I'd like to draw closer to God as I help others to realize their own spiritual aspirations.
