Minister

Sharon and I have been in ministry since 1979, and here with CHCC since 2014. It’s exiting to be able to share the Good News of Jesus in a positive way. We firmly believe and seek to practice the church’s Mission Statement We always strive to

• • • Connect with God,
    • Connect with Christians,
    • Connect with our Community.

I was baptized in the Pearl Harbor Memorial Christian Church in Honolulu, Hawaii in April 1980. The elders immediately put me to work teaching the fifth grade Sunday School and reading Scripture from the pulpit. Then the worship leader talked me into singing in various ensembles.

I came to Colonial Heights Church of Christ in 1985, was elected deacon in 1986 and elder in 1990. It has been my privilege to serve in many capacities through the years, but I would have to say that sharing God’s Word is by far my favorite. In fact, like Paul, I find myself compelled to teach (1 Corinthians 9:16).

"Dear friend, I know life can be busy and overwhelming, but I want to encourage you to come to church—not out of duty, but because it’s a place where you can find true rest and renewal.

Physical Rest Exodus 20:8-11 Recharge your body and Energy for the week.

The Bible says in Matthew 11:28, ‘Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.’ Church is where we meet Jesus together, where His love lifts our burdens and fills us with hope.

Emotional Peace Psalm 23:2-3 Find calm amidst life's stresses. 

When we gather, we’re reminded we’re not alone—God’s Spirit moves among us, and our shared worship strengthens us for the journey. You have a unique place in our church family, and your presence blesses others just as much as it blesses you.

Spiritual Renewal Leviticus 23:3 Grow closer to God in worship. 

Come, let’s worship together, grow in faith, and discover the joy God has for you in community!"

Community Deuteronomy 5:12-14 Build bonds with others who care.

Your Bible

‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ ”

As you seek first His kingdom (Matthew 6:33), you'll discover that true spiritual & personal growth isn't about chasing the world's applause, but about letting the Holy Spirit shape your character day by day into the likeness of Christ.

The Clothing Closet 

Receiving clothes from the church is a heartfelt blessing for the community, providing for those in need with warmth and dignity. Giving is a testament to the church’s commitment to helping others through practical acts of love and kindness. Each garment donated out of  generosity, love, and care. This simple act of giving to others is a beacon of hope for many. Recipients feal enveloped not just in layers of fabric, but in a sense of belonging and support, strengthening the bonds within the community.

Missions

Jesus emphasizes the importance of missions and helping others throughout His teachings. In Matthew28:19-20, He instructs His followers to "go and make disciples of all nations," highlighting the call to spread the gospel and serve globally. Additionally, in Matthew25:35-40, Jesus reflects on serving others, stating that whatever is done for the least of His brothers and sisters is done for Him. This underscores His call to compassionately support and uplift those in need as a reflection of one’s faith.
