While I have never worked as a professional care giver I have frequently sailed those waters. In personal life with family members, and in pastoral ministry I have often ministered to those in crisis, or in limiting or rehabilitative conditions - in homes, hospitals and special care settings. I bring peace and security into situations and am able to be a companion to people of many personalities, with diverse challenges in varieties of settings. I am willing and able to provide physical help, transportation, shopping and basic hygiene assistance, house keeping and some food preparation. I love reading, writing and listening to the stories of others. I might be willing to help your loved one write their life story. I am an excellent conversationalist and an expert in encouraging others. I have many life experiences, having lived in 7 states and 2 countries. I have pastored in 6 churches and run one non-profit. I am a writer and conference speaker. I have also worked in security, sales and construction. My wife and I have owned 3 mini-farms and 2 apartment buildings. We have 3 grandsons and a granddaughter on the way! As a male I would prefer working with a male client. Of course an interview would be necessary to see if we could find a good fit.
