Grace Assembly, Houston, Texas
Pastor Gary felt the call to preach around 19; however, nothing seemed to transpire. Yet, he continued doing ministry work in his church, without complaint, because he would wait on the Lord to fulfill his life plans.
Then it happened.
On February 4, 2002, Pastor Gary and his partner, J.R. Cook opened the doors of Grace Assembly in Livingston, TX. For over 6 years, Pastor Gary ministered to the GLBT community in a small town north of Houston. However, God began to call Pastor Gary to Houston. Therefore, in October 2008, Grace Assembly-Livingston closed its doors. After taking a sabbatical, Pastor Gary reopened Grace Assembly in Houston, TX on May 2, 2010.
Pastor Gary has been with his partner, J.R. Cook, for nearly 12 years. They will celebrate an anniversary in November.
