Soul Bait Ministries...equipping, healing, planting
Perhaps the biggest thing that has happened is that we have started Soul Bait
Ministries, and with that, we have transitioned from Clermont, FL to Jacksonville, FL.
This whole move was a God move.
Before I get into that, let me say it’s been a blessing serving with Pastors Rick &
Beckee for over 12 years. It’s because of their leadership and gifts from God that my
wife & I were able to find our calling and ministry. They are a blessing to us.

time of a crazy housing market, God was able to sell our house in 7 days - WOW! We
knew it was time. With the hand of God clearing a path and the blessing of our church
family in Clermont, we were on our way.

We are now Soul Bait Ministries, Inc., a non-profit charitable organization. God gave us
the name Soul Bait in the late ‘90s, and now He has birthed it into being. I believe it
fits our calling.
We have two scriptures as our basis: 1) Mark 1:17. That is where Jesus tells Peter
that he will be a fisher of men. 2) John 4:7-15. This is where Jesus is talking to the
woman at the well. Using prophecy, he tells her of the past and present, and offers
her a new future.
That’s where we come in. We use the gifts and tools God has given us to reach the
lost, and to raise up people in the church to hear and do what God wants them to do.
God has given us the mandate of ‘equipping, healing and planting’ for His kingdom.
This goes for the believer and unbeliever alike. If we can reach a man’s soul, his body
will follow.
Moving here from our home in Clermont was what God wanted us to do. We pray that
you will hear and do what He has called you to do, too.
