Joe had come to know Jesus as His Lord and Savior here at Open Door about ten years ago.  Having been delivered out of a background that relates to the temptations that so many youth face, Pastor Joe can help them see how to walk free in Jesus.  He is passionate as he ministers to youth, not only in church services, but also in his daily life.

His vision of reaching, raising up, and equipping this generation for the purposes of God is contagious. 

Joe, along with his wife of twelve years, Charity, have three children, Matthew, Destiny, and Josiah.
