Andrew was significantly influenced by Youth Ministers during his teen years, which led him to earn a degree in Christian Education from Erskine College. While in college, he served on the youth team at his church and worked as a summer youth intern. Prior to Grace, Andrew served in youth ministry for six years in Hollywood, SC.
Andrew was called to Grace in 2022 and is excited to build relationships with youth and students, teaching them about the steadfast love of the Lord and the hope of the Resurrection.
“For I know that my Redeemer lives, and at the last he will stand upon the earth. And after my skin has been thus destroyed, yet in my flesh, I shall see God, whom I shall see for myself, and my eyes shall behold, and not another. My heart faints within me!”
Job 19:25-27 (ESV)
