From teaching Sunday school and doing bus ministry at Canton Baptist Temple, he continued with pastoral training and was assistant pastor for 7 years. In 1985, he became the pastor at Faith Baptist in Niles, retiring in 2014. The faith he told others about is now sight, for he is now seeing his Lord.
