Summary

Summary🌟 I’m Donovan, and I was raised in Indian River, Michigan, believing in God but lacking spiritual direction. After joining the Navy and meeting my wife Judith in the Philippines, our shared love for God blossomed. We searched for a true church, praying earnestly—especially after being stationed in Tennessee, then Lemore. It was there that God led us through unexpected meetings and Bible studies into the Iglesia Ni Cristo.

At first, I was deeply resistant—angry even—when I heard that only one church would be saved. But something stirred within me. I turned the car around that day, walked back into the chapel, and that’s when God opened my eyes to truth I had never seen before 📖. The prophecies in Isaiah and clarity about the Church of Christ shook me.

Eventually, in 1989, Judith and I were baptized. Later, in Phoenix, Arizona, I was appointed head deacon—a role that became my greatest blessing 💒. Though I now live with MS, I never asked God, “Why me?” Instead, I trust Him. And recently, doctors told me my MS has gone dormant—hallelujah 🙌!

God has guided every step—our marriage, our ministry, and even my healing. I now live in gratitude and service, believing He will restore me completely 💪.
