In his spare time, Pete enjoys running, cycling, woodworking, and fixing up old broken down cars.

When asked for a phrase that defines his ministry he replied, “In the person of Jesus Christ, there is no place where there is no hope…” He is a passionate believer in our God “who is able to do immeasurably more than we ask or imagine…” (Eph. 3:20)
