"I have grown to have a passion to see every born again Believer exercise their spiritual gifts for the cause of Jesus Christ. Every member has a purpose! Craig's desire is to see the local church utilize it's members to reach others with the Gospel of Jesus Christ through the ministry of Sunday School. "The Lord has used the ministry of Sunday School in so many ways through the years and I am honored that He has graciously allowed me to be involved with it here at New Hope.
