Why would you like to serve on the PSC?

I believe my spiritual gifts and years of service can help the PSC nominate a pastor that is uniquely qualified to shepherd Westtown at this important time of transition and healing.

What spiritual gifts would you be bringing to the PSC?

I can bring knowledge, discernment, and leadership to the PSC.

How have you served (or are serving) at Westtown?

I served as a deacon from 2014 to 2022, have served as a youth leader since 2013, and a life group leader since around 2017.

How are you serving Christ’s Kingdom outside of Westtown?

I routinely meet and follow up with individuals who received support from the church’s mercy fund and volunteer for service projects announced at church.

Are you willing to commit your time and attention to the PSC, even if it takes a year or two?

Yes

Have you ever served on a PSC before?

No

Are you willing to travel on weekends to visit churches of the finalists?

Yes

Do you believe that the Bible is infallible as it is the inspired Word of God?

Yes

Do you admit that you are a sinner, totally dependent on the atoning work of Jesus Christ for you salvation?

Yes

Are you willing to perform the duties of the PSC to represent the interests of Westtown Church and its members according to the Presbyterian Church in America’s Book of Church Order (PCA-BCO)?

Yes

Summarize your prayer life:

My prayer life is improving but not what it should be. When I pray, it is usually in the morning, evening, and prior to reading the Bible. Adoration, confession, thanksgiving, and asking God to grant salvation, spiritual discernment, and spiritual growth to those in need is how I try to approach my time with God.

Summarize your spiritual journey in Christ:

The period of greatest spiritual growth in my walk with Jesus has occurred over the last 8 to 9 years. During this time my love for God and His word grew exponentially more than it did in the previous 27 or more years. I am so thankful that God saved me and the reoccurring prayer for my life is that I grow in my love for Him, my brothers and sisters in Christ, and those who need to hear the Gospel.

Is there anything else that you wish to share with the congregation about your desire to serve on the PSC?

No.
