Interim Youth Pastor

Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children. And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God. - Ephesians 5:1-2

John has lived in Tallahassee for most of his life and married his high school sweetheart, Kathryn, in 1999. They have six kids ranging in ages from TWENTY to TWO! Their family has been members of Bradfordville for 16 years.  John has been a paramedic in this area for 23 years and is currently a student at Barry University, pursuing a degree in Emergency Management. John has served as a Deacon and leads the adult Sunday school class Gospel Connections.

Kathryn is an RN for Capital Health Plan (works remotely at night) and homeschools their school-aged children. Their oldest daughter, Emily (20), is in college, and a member of a sister Baptist church, where she is on staff.  John Daniel (18) and Molly (13) enjoy using their musical gifts to serve Bradfordville and are involved in IGNITE Student Ministry.  Caroline (8), Avonlea (6), and Jameson (2) enjoy Bradfordville Kids Ministry and love their teachers and friends.  The family enjoys traveling and road tripping in their camper all over the US!

John has always enjoyed teaching, whether training a new EMT or Paramedic, the community in CPR, or being Scoutmaster for his son’s Boy Scout Troop.  His passion for teaching has flowed into a love for studying and teaching God’s Word.  He desires to equip the next generation to learn Biblical truths and come alongside young people and their families as they walk in the instruction and obedience of the Lord. He welcomes the opportunity to serve IGNITE Student Ministry in this capacity.
