Pastor Shawn was born in Anniston, Alabama into a life of ministry. His father and mother raised him in God's word and believed Prov. 22:6 " Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it". Therefore knowing the calling of God on his life, Pastor Shawn went to Baton Rouge Loisiana to earn a degree in ministry. Pastor Shawn has been married to his wife Andrea for over 10 years. They have two sons, Caleb & Nathanael.
