The Lord led my wife Margaret and me to Redemption Bible Chapel St. Thomas (formerly Gospel Fellowship Chapel) in 2012. Prior to coming to RBC St. Thomas we were active members of the Free Reformed Church of St. Thomas for 33 years. We are thankful to our faithful God for His gracious leading in our lives.

 

Margaret and I were married in 1979 and God blessed us with four children. Our eldest daughter is married to Paul Westendorp and living in St. Thomas. Our second daughter is married to Pani Phiri and living in Alberta. Our son James is married to Rachel and living in St. Thomas. Our youngest daughter Suzanne is living in St. Thomas. By God’s grace our children walk in the ways of our God and we have been blessed with many grandchildren who are being taught and instructed in God’s word.

 

I own and operate my own accounting/tax practice and have done so since 1995. Margaret
retired from her work in 2017.

 

Both Margaret and I were raised in Christian homes and came to know the Lord in a saving way at early ages.

 

Romans 8:15 “For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father”. The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God.”
