Isaiah 6:8

"Then I heard the Voice of the Lord saying, 'Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?' And I said, 'Here am I. Send me!'" 

This wonderful verse in Scripture is one I pray and ponder on often. When I was fifteen years old, I was in a youth group at my home Meeting of Forbush Friends, and we had been asked to lead worship for a Youth Sunday. The time came for one of us to volunteer to give the sermon. I felt the Call of the Holy Spirit to say like the Prophet Isaiah, "Here am I. Send me!" that Sunday at Forbush Friends was the first time I had the privilege of sharing the Word of God, and Thankfully, it was the first of many.  

God began something in me that wonderful day, which has meant all the difference in my life. 

After that day, he gave me other opportunities. While in high school, I was a member of the All in Awe NCYM Youth Ministry team, which shared the Lord's Words to Friends Meetings throughout North Carolina. I filled in for pastors within a few years as a pulpit supply. 

In 2001, God led me to Guilford College, a Quaker School, where I earned my Bachelor of Science and became a Quaker Leader Scholar. During that time, God placed me with my Spiritual and pastoral mentor, Billy M. Britt, and I served with him as associate pastor at two Friends Meetings. 

In 2005, God Led me to my first Senior Pastorate at Prosperity Friends Meeting in Robbins, NC. The Friends at Prosperity were patient and loving to me, and the lessons I learned while there were invaluable. During my five years at Prosperity, I was Recorded as a Minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ through the Religious Society of Friends. I Earned Graduate Degrees in Christian Ministry and Bible Studies from Carolina Evangelical Divinity School. 

In 2010, God led me to my dear friends at Science Hill Friends Meeting in Asheboro, NC. The eight years I was at Science Hill were special to me, and the lessons and growth I experienced while amongst these Friends helped me grow as a pastor and a person. God led me to begin missionary work with my friends in Jamaica Yearly Meeting and grow as an Evangelist during my time with them. 

Once again, in 2018, God asked: "Who shall I send? And who will go for us?" 

And once again, I knew He was talking to me! God was speaking to me again to come to Cedar Square Friends Meeting, a very special place that I have deeply respected since I was a teenager beginning in Ministry. The opportunity to be among the many great, respected friends and ministers in Cedar Square's history is humbling and a great honor. 

I am truly honored to be called to the Lord's service and very appreciative that the Lord has led me to be at Cedar Square Friends. And if anyone is reading this and is searching for a spiritual home, then we at Cedar Square would love to see you! Please come and join us so that together, when the Lord asks, "Who shall I send? And who will go for us?" We may together respond, "Here are we. Send us!"

Born and bred growing up in Cedar Square Friends from my early days, I have always felt ties here with my church family. From weekly Sunday School classes, numerous memorable VBS summers, to enjoying my time being a youth member, I somehow knew my roots would stay deep here. Upon graduating from Providence Grove High School in 2015, I was encouraged to attend my first Mission Trip with the Youth as my first 'Chaperone Trip' to Nashville, TN. I absolutely loved the experience and getting to grow in relationships with the other teens my age as we served different places within the Nashville area. After that, I just fell into a rhythm of being a volunteer leader whenever the youth pastor or other leaders needed me. 

I became Head of Christian Education in 2024 and through hard work with a wonderful team, we have navigated through many ministries here at Cedar Square. We revised Sunday School Classes and have come a long way from where we started, we have and are still planning and hosting fun game nights for some much-needed fellowship time among the church family and community every quarter and we are always looking to try exciting things to keep Cedar Square active and growing!

I have absolutely enjoyed getting to work under our previous Youth Pastor, Sterling Brown for the long term he was serving here and I felt led to step up and continue working with the children and teens we have worked with so long. It will not by any means be a one-person position, but sometimes a church-wide effort to put into the youth and future of our meeting.

Hebrews 10:24-25 "And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another - and all the more as you see the Day approaching."
