National Day of Prayer
Thursday, May 7 (7 pm)
We have changed the location of the National Day of Prayer event: event will be held at the farthest paved lot in the Goldsboro boat access area along the Susquehanna.
Directions: from Pines Road entering Goldsboro:
- At stop sign on Square, directly cross toward the river.
- Cross the railroad tracks
- Immediately turn left
- Continue to the very end of the paved parking lots.
- The event will be held on the near side of far parking lot, side away from the river.
Representatives from a few area congregations will lead us in prayer for business, church, education, family, government, media, and military.
Social distancing (and whatever other protective measures that are recommended) as we lift up our community and nation before God in prayer.

After graduating from Red Land high school and Indiana University of Pennsylvania, I worked several years at Ships Parts Control Center. Jeanne came into my life simultaneous to my sense of a calling for additional training. We moved to Findlay, OH and finished my M. Div. through Winebrenner Theological Seminary. I was ordained by the Churches of God, General Conference and served pastorates in Cumberland, Allegheny and Westmoreland Counties.
Desert Storm arose during the mid-point of those assignments and again I sensed a calling and was commissioned as a Chaplain in the US Army Reserves. Three overseas deployments and 24 years later, I retired from the military and have returned to my boyhood home in Etters.
Married to Jeanne for four decades now (seems like yesterday), God blessed us with a daughter Sarah and son Zachary, who in turn are both married to great people and have provided five grandsons and one beautiful granddaughter between them! We are so proud of our children and our grandchildren!
I am very excited to be part of the Goldsboro Church and to have the opportunity to serve alongside these good folks as we let the light of Jesus be reflected into the lives and fabric of our community.
