Serving God with His people at Faith OPC has been a great joy and blessing. When I grow up, I want to umpire Little League Baseball. I will revel on that day when I can say to a 10-year-old boy after four pitched balls, "Take a walk in the sunshine." My wife of 30+ years, Peggy, consistently demonstrates the love of Christ and remains my very best friend. Our six children, our four lovely, sweetie-pie daughters-in-law, and our four grandchildren serve as resident theologians.

Give Thanks


This is Tovia Ann Sumpter at 8 months. She's our wonderful miracle grandbaby, born premature at 2 lbs, 2 oz. She's our third grandchild. This morning at our Thanksgiving Worship, a brother led the congregational prayer giving thanks for various kindnesses and blessings in the past year of 2008, and he offered specific thanks for God's goodness to this little one. I was more than a little moved emotionally as I heard this man pray for Tovia. God is good in so many, many ways.
