It hasbeen my privilege to serve and lead Crossroads as Pastor, since 1997. Vanessa, our 3 children, and I are all native Texans, but love our adopted state of North Carolina. Vanessa and I graduated from Howard Payne University in Brownwood, Texas. She taught math tat Harnett Central High School for 9 years and recently moved to West Johnston High School. Vanessa serves as one of our Worship Leaders.

I did further studies at a wonderful school in Fort Worth, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary (M.Div. and D.Min.). I have been a pastor since the summer after my high school graduation and can’t believe how gracious the Lord has been in allowing me to serve Him.

Our son, Ben and his wife, Brooke recently graduated from UNC-Charlotte and plan to prepare for a career in international missions. Ben is Worship Pastor at Northview Community Church near Hendersonville, NC. They gave Ken & Vanessa their first grandchild in June of 2007 -- Caleb. Jennifer is a graduate of UNC-Charlotte and is working hard as an elementary teacher in Cabarrus County. She married Larry Harahus on December 15 of 2007. Mikaela is a 12th grader and is very busy with tennis, Beta Club, and her Youth Group here at Crossroads. She also plays 3 instruments (not all at the same time) in our Praise Band and is also trying to decide which college she will attend in the Fall.

We would love to meet you and welcome you into our other family -- Crossroads Church. Come see what it’s like to be in a church with people who are not all alike. We have people from all over the country, from every economic and educational level, and we absolutely love it when God enlarges His family, here. Please come by and worship with us, give me a call, or just stop by to talk. I hope to see you, soon!

Ken
