Pastor Sam is just a storyteller—he tells the story like no other. His love for God was instilled by the “Domestic Church.” It all starts with the family. When Samuel was born—his father took the mother’s tear of joy, made the sign of the cross on Samuel’s forehead, and said, “In the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit—I bless my son.” His father’s three friends visited on Christmas of 1950, giving him three gifts, and Eli prayed for Samuel to have the gift of words. Pastor Sam’s mission is, “I want you to join me and serve God—we are called to serve God.” Open the pages of the gospels and read God’s holy word—written by holy men: Matthew—Mark—Luke—John.
