As a student he served as church teen leader, bible school teacher, music leader and choir member, youth pastor, summer camp counselor and activities director, regular chapel speaker, local pastor, missionary, and medical missions volunteer.
In 1999 a serious head injury and subsequent post traumatic disorder left Michael destined to residency in a neurological and retraining facility. Instead, a decision by family and friends was made to enter a natural health clinic in southern Mexico. While receiving therapy himself he began volunteering as a spiritual counselor, physical therapist, and health caregiver. Later he began conducting health seminars and giving simple eye examinations in surrounding cities and states. A decision was made to enter this field of volunteer work on a full time basis.
Throughout Mexico, Michael has conducted or assisted in over 90 health seminars with tens of thousands participating in these programs. He has personally attended more than 16,000 patients and distributed over 60,000 printed guides to eye care, prescription glasses and eye medicines. He has contributed thousands of volunteer hours educating and assisting medical students who choose to enter some form of mission service. His ministry has also funded and built 2 small churches, 6 home health clinics, several safe houses for unwed mothers, the homeless, and displaced victims of floods.
Since 2008, Michael has divided his time between living and assisting in new church work in northern Mexico where his family reside, and the United States where he works partime throught the year to provide funding for the medical missions work.
Michael enjoys travel, nature adventures and quiet evenings with his wife Mary and infant daughter Kelli. Writing poetry, inspirational seminars, and gospel music are his passions and he looks forward to the day when he will be able to begin another career as full time writer and lecturer.lihat lebih sedikit
