Murray:
“Although I came to know Jesus quite later in my life, when I did meet him I felt called to ministry right away. The way God works in, with and through us never ceases to amaze me. Being at The Church of Living Water is an affirmation to God’s calling on my life. This is an amazing church and I have the utmost confidence that I am exactly where God wants me to be at the moment. “
