I was born in Salinas, Calif., and attended University of California, Davis, where I came to know Christ as my Lord and Savior during my freshman year. It was a job with Clorox that brought me to Vacaville in the early '80s, and after a career change and move to the Bay Area, I met and married my wife, Joanne, at First Covenant Church in Oakland.

We returned to Vacaville, were blessed with five children, and I worked in public education as Joanne orchestrated the schooling of our kids. We came to Faith Community Church in the spring of 2014 and faithful teaching of the Bible and a loving church family have kept us here!

It is a blessing and a privilege to serve Christ and His people here at FCC.
