Michael was born and raised in Chicago. He was brought up in a Catholic home. After many years of living a life that demanded works as a way to Heaven, Michael came to Christ at the age of 32 after being witnessed to and discipled by the president of the company he worked for in Fayetteville, NY. Since his conversion, Michael has had the opportunity to share his faith throughout his career as a leader in the Caterpillar organization. Michael credits The Lord's use of John 8:32, "and you shall know the truth and the truth will set you free," and John 8:36, "and when the Son sets you free you are free indeed," for the revelation of freedom in Christ in his life. Michael is married to Susan, his bride since 2001. They have six grown children and six grandchildren. Michael and Susan currently reside in West Chester, Ohio after moving here in 2015 from St. Louis, Missouri, where he served as Associate/Family Pastor at Harvest Bible Chapel. Michael currently leads the Men's Ministry at Center Pointe.

Michael's spiritual gifts are faith, exhortation, teaching, and administration and looks forward to serving The Lord as an Ambassador for Christ further here at Center Pointe.
