Mennonite Central Committee

I enjoy being with the variety of immigrants. Having lived for 10 years in Mexico as a church planter, I can see both sides of the story, the bigger picture.

I hope to be a bridge, to walk with people, to advocate for people.

I’ve accompanied some immigrants to court. I’m not a lawyer! But the truth is people pay attention to me - a white, middle-class man. I’m using my place in society.

It is a challenge and a privilege to pastor this church. We’ve had members of our congregation deported. But we continue to walk with each other. That’s what the church ought to be doing.
