About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To know God and make Him known.

ABOUT ME

Wassup. My name's Garrett. Some people call me Suntown; I'll leave you to guess why. I'm 22, living it up here in the happiest place on the planet, Vancouver, WA. I'M paying my way through Bible College by bartending, and I already realize the irony, so there's no need to point it out. I'm an intern at Living Hope Church where I direct programming for college services, and play drums on the worship team. I'm also on the PIT Crew (Pastors in Training) and I'm loving every minute of it. I have the most wonderful, kind, entertaining girlfriend any guy could ask for. She's the only person I've ever met who is as sarcastic as me and can put up with my antics. At this point I'm having a blast doing the work God has called me for. I'm currently a student at Multnomuh Bible College, earning degrees in Theology and Pastoral Studies. I hope to one day work in the ministry full-time, and go on to teach Trinitarian Theology and Bible History. (Trust me, it's even more fun than it sounds) I plan to one day launch my own ministry called VOAG (Voice of a Generation) Right now it only exists on paper, but God is a really big God, and my faith is in Him alone. I also hope to do missionary work in genocide-stricken countries, such as Cambodia and Rwanda. "For to me, to live as Christ and to die is truly gain." Phillipians 1:21

PHILOSOPHY

Life is to short to be pissed off. Happiness is simple things. Jesus is the answer.
