Pastor Dave and Linda came to Michigan in the late 70's after evangelizing for 2 years.
 

They later met Bishop Charles and Laura Colegrove and pastored with them for twelve years at Apostolic Gospel Tabernacle - which later became Fairview Apostolic Church. Their mentoring and friendship assisted in the developement of his ministry, adding a greater dimension of faith in his life. Their influence gave him understanding and experience to be a pastor with a "servant’s heart."

After leaving Fairview Apostolic Church he spent some time in corporate America, involved in Information Technology. Seven years ago he felt an earnest desire to return to ministry. As a result, Bishop Charles and Laura, Pastor Dave and Linda, along with a newly formed leadership team, co-founded a new ministry work which later became GracePointe Church, Inc.

GracePointe was birthed out of a desire to build a community of believers who desire to create a "place of worship" dedicated to the Lord; to build a worship center for hurting people to experience finding answers to life’s burdens and, in turn, draw others into a personal experience with Jesus Christ.

Dave is currently a licensed minister with Global Network of Christian Ministries, an international ministerial fellowship of ministers that provide networking relationships with pastors and ministers for guidance, encouragement, and fellowship.

For over twenty years Pastor Dave has enjoyed a rich and full ministry with people who love God, love to worship God, and have a deep love for God’s Word.
