I am Pastor Daniel, the pastor at the Fork/Waugh United Methodist Churches.

I grew up in Roanoke, Virginia and was active in Boy Scouting. My foundation in the United Methodist Church helped me to give my life to Christ while I was in college. 

I am a graduate of Virginia Tech (Go Hokies!) In 1988 God called me to ministry and I started leading churches. I earned a Master of Divinity from Wesley Theological Seminary. I was ordained elder in 1997.

My wife Angela and I raised two children who are now 23 and 21.

My experience of the Walk to Emmaus was life changing. I have led many Walk to Emmaus weekends and Kairos Prison Ministry weekends.
