"As a Pastor, I want to see each believer reach his/her full potential as a Christian. We all have a destiny and I believe that destiny is for greatness...Through reaching that destination God has a plan for each of our lives and all we have to do is to walk in that plan and to trust in Him. Each person is important to God and His love is surrounding us everyday. Don't let a day go by without returning that love."
