In addition to his local ministry, Roy serves as Vice President for Fellowships and Congregations with Chosen People Ministries and is leading a team to establish a new outreach in the Bay Area, beginning in the city of San Francisco.

Testimonial

“Roy’s testimony and understanding of the Jewish culture added great depth to the Scriptures taught. It was great that his wife was able to join him.”

Pastor Joshua Fetterhoff

Christian Church of Rural Gove, in Sprakers, NY

“Roy did a superb job of personalizing the Passover. From the start, it was like he had invited us in to his boyhood home, yet, as the message progressed Jesus shone brightly as he shared the true meaning of various elements of the Passover meal.”

Pastor Clif Ingram

Lighthouse Fellowship in Frankfort, IL

“Roy did a fantastic job! Our church is still talking about the experience. Many saw Christ in the Passover like never before. I will definitely schedule him again.”

Pastor Jason Sprinkel
