I was born and raised in Philadelphia as the son of a single parent. My mother was hard working and managed to send my brother and I to Catholic school. Although I attended Catholic school into the high school years, I never saw the need for a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. In the early 70's and 80's my life mainly revolved around the use of drugs. In 1979, I joined the U.S. Navy, and became a Hospital Corpsman for the next 13 years. On Jan. 23, 1982 a Marine Corps friend took me to church for a Saturday evening revival, and when the “call” was given I prayed and trusted Christ to be my personal savior, and life was never the same.
