LIFE IN THE MINISTRY.
Francis was 18 years old when gave his life to the Lord in May 10, 1998, at a worship service in Music Museum. As a student, he actively participated in the Youth Ministries and consistently contributed in the planning and brainstorming as part of the ministry core group. He sought God and the counsel of leaders regarding his heart to do full-time ministry. Francis’ passion for the youth is clearly reflected as he shares, “The youth face a turning point in their life when they decide on what they want to become. I’ve seen the youth looked down on. Some of them miss out on their potential to make a difference. I see it a privilege in taking part in their lives.”

On the people that he encounters, he believes that “they’re missing a great LIFE if they are not sold out to God’s plan for their lives.”

FRANCIS TRIVIA.
Francis recently unearthed an interest in swimming. He is also eyeing skydiving and mountaineering.
