Gary was saved and filled with the Holy spirit in 1969. He had gone through much confusion as a drug abuser and through involvement in cultic teachings. Through the kindness and real Christianity of a wonderful lady, Mrs. Joan Annette, he was miraculously delivered and filled with the Holy Spirit. His hunger for the word of God was insatiable and soon found himself helping Pastors and Evangelists in any way possible just to get more teaching and fellowship. One Pastor whom he was helping paint a church commented that Gary made him preach all day, making him double tired at day's end.

Gary travelled with a number of Evangelists and begin writing gospel songs which he sang in the meetings. While travelling with a great man of God, Virgil Johnson, he met Virgil's sister-in-law, Debbie. Debbie didn't much like the skinny ex-hippie at first, thought he looked

like an old man, but somewhere along the line he got into her heart. They sang together in the Living Word Team along with Debbie's awesome sister, Melonie, and travelled a great deal of America. They were married in 1973 and Amy, (the webmaster), was born in 1976.

 

Gary and Debbie pastored churches, evangelized, and minstered and sang in many Full Gospel Businessmen meetings. Gary has travelled to India, South Africa, Puerto Rico, Canada, and many of the States.

Gary and Debbie now live in Bowling Green, Ohio with daughter Amy and Emily and Katie, the two undisputed cutest grandkids in the world!!!
