Pastor Rudalf’s path to ministry led him through some deep valleys – but there he met Jesus as His Savior and best Friend. Loving and following Jesus allowed him to hear God’s calling him into full-time ministry and he accepted that challenge without any doubt that what God had started in him, He would complete. His passions for the youth (he has 3 of his own) and Community Service makes him a perfect fit for the Independence Church. His ministry is scheduled to begin July 1, 2024.
