What do you love about WMU: I love how everything is walkable, I love the open sky and the pond, I love how genuine the people are.
Why is the good news of Jesus good news to you:
I’ve made a lot of mistakes but by the love of God through Jesus all have been forgiven and are being redeemed and I have been welcomed in as a son.
What do you do around H2O: I get to do a bit of everything: I help with the website/social media and with pictures and videos, I get to do some music on Sundays, and I help the church tell their stories through our slices of life.
A little bit more about Mike:
I’m married to an amazing woman (Rachael) and we have a wonderfully wild little boy (Jalen).
I love getting outside, I love enjoying a good story, I thoroughly enjoy all sports, and I’m willing to try just about anything at least once.
