Pine Grove Bible Church

I would like to share with you just a little about my family and our commitment in serving Christ. My wife, Maryann  and I have been married for 39 years. Maryann and I met in high school in Warren, Michigan, were married and have 5 married children who are  all faithfully serving Christ. We also have 14 grandchildren to date.

While attending college, I was called to serve in the US Army as a military policeman. In 1973 I was hired as a police officer in the city of Detroit until 1984. But, the Lord a had another purpose for my life. In 1992, while working for Android Industries , the Lord gave me the desire to pursue serving Christ vocationally. Arrangements were graciously made with my employer for my pursuit of training for full time ministry. At the present time, I am “bi-vocational,” and employed by Android Industries in the Innovation Group and also serve as the pastor of Pine Grove Bible Church.

A Brief History of PGBC

In 1992 I began pastoral training at the Detroit Baptist Theological Seminary and graduated in 2000. It was at DBTS where I saw the need and developed the desire for church planting.

After selecting and surveying the community we would minister, Pine Grove Bible Church was started in 2002. We began meeting at the Oak Tree Elementary School of the Goodrich Schools. Since that time we moved our worship services to the Goodrich Lions Club where we meet presently.

Currently, we own 4 acres of land on M-15 about a quarter of a mile south of the Lions Club where we meet. Our goal is to construct our own meeting facility in the future as the Lord provides.
