MEET OUR LEADERSHIP


NELSON'S STORY:

I was born here in Richmond, Va. I have been married to my wife, Pamela for 36 years.  I have four grown kids, three grandchildren, and 3 dogs. My wife and I live in the Northside of Richmond.    

I believe my calling from God is to serve all of those that live on the margins.  I have a passion to see a Tiny House Village in Richmond for those who live on the margins.  I would also like to see a commercial space for those same people to be able to go and be themselves without judgment.  Throughout the past few years, I have learned a lot more about what it means to “Love thy Neighbor”.

MIKE'S STORY:

I was born on Long Island NY but moved down south to RVA at a young age.  I made the decision to follow Jesus through a group called Young Life.  At the age of seventeen I felt a call from the Holy Spirit to a be in full time ministry.  I am a follower of Jesus and ordained Pastor.  

 I believe my calling from God is to see people follow Jesus and fall more in love with Him everyday.   I have a great dog named Moses Jeter and I will never stop rooting for the NY Yankees, NY Giants, Notre Dame Football and of course VCU Basketball.   I currently live in the Lakeside area of Richmond.
