My full biography will be updated soon.
Welcome everyone to The Sanctuary of Fairbanks. A place where you can find rest, peace, hope, and love.
We are excited you have joined us to visit our church. We have a very diverse church with people from all walks of life. It is a beutiful testimony that The Lord is reaching for everyone.
I have been a part of this church for over 20 years and it is a blessing being a part of the family of God committed to helping each person grow in their walk with God.
I have committed myself to living for the Lord and answering the call He has placed on my life: to serve Him and love people
Matthew 22:37-40 KJVS
Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. [38] This is the first and great commandment. [39] And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. [40] On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets
Welcome to the Sanctuary, United Pentecostal Church, Fairbanks, AK. I am excited for you to come and join us. Anyone who visits our church is a blessing to us!
I’ve had the honor to serve as the associate pastor for over 30 years. I love being part of a thriving community that helps people develop a deeper relationship with God.
Our church is a welcoming place that has a diverse group of people of many different ethnicities, cultures, languages, interests and occupations, including active and retired military members.
All of God’s children are welcome here at the Sanctuary and we look forward to seeing you.
God bless you!
Along with my wife Johnnie, I have been a part of the Sanctuary since 1996. I love the people of this community and especially the congregation here at 907 23rd Ave. Over the years we have served as Youth Pastors, Life Group leaders, Facilities lead and am now serving in my favorite role…a teacher of God’s word.
As a teacher of the Bible, my aim is to draw, win, establish, and equip people for the service of God’s calling. Through the teaching of the scriptures and diligent application I believe that everyone can mature in their relationship with Christ.
Paul declared that we should be no more children spiritually, but should all grow up into Christ which is the head of all things. Eph. 4:14
Some Biblical truths can be gleaned from the surface of Scripture, while others must be searched for. We are all instructed to study God’s word to show ourselves approved of God…and my passion is to help God’s people understand how God’s word specifically applies to their own lives.
The Sanctuary is a family. Our sincere desire is that you too will find a place of hope, refuge, and restoration in God’s house. We look forward to meeting you as well as helping you find your unique place in God’s Kingdom.
“It was [Christ] who gave some to be … pastors and teachers, to prepare God’s people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all…become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.”
– Eph. 4:11-13
