About Pastor Mike

As a kid i was physically and mentally abused by my father, my father a Jewish man fought all his life for being Jewish, but he was a trained fighter, and wanted me to be like him, and like alI children in Israel to be trained to fight for what i was a Jew, but he took it to far, the beatings were supposed to be at times (so he said) preparing me for life. So i grew up hating my dad. i remember i broke my leg at 10 years old and my dad didn't believe it was broken he made me walk on it and then snapped it straight to prove i was faking or tough enough to handle it! i swore that day if i didn't do anything in my life i was going to kill my dad. But I didn't want to do it with a gun or a knife but with my hands i wanted to beat him like he beat me! i went to school and my dad told me that being jewish i may experience some struggle. The second day of school I went into the bathroom and there were three kids in there. i had heard about one of them he was supposed to be the toughest kid in school. When i finished I went to leave, but two kids blocked the door, i guess they worked for the tough kid. They said i couldn't leave unless I fought the other kid, he said common we'll just slap box i said i didn't want to and then he started trying to hit me, and i blocked his blows, but then all the sudden what i was taught just started, my hands seemed to move of there on accord, he crumbled to the floor and i shouted i didn't want this you made it happen. i tuned and said now i am leaving, the other two kids looked in shock and just moved out of the way. So soon everyone in school started talking, and the kid wanted me as a friend, and it seemed that now the bad kids in school wanted my friendship, which turned out worse for me. Then it started the weaker kid started giving me things to protect them, and it turned into a weekly thing. One of the kids was a rich kid and he started stealing money from his dad to pay me, and i was trapped, and starting taking the payments. He got caught and said he had to have the money to pay me for protection. Of course i denied it, and they couldn't prove anything cause i took only cash. Soon i was the most suspended kid in the school. But there was still that broken lil kid on the inside, i really didn't want to be like this. i was tough on the outside but i was a broken child on the inside! And when trouble came my way I would fight my way out of it! I had no confidence in any adult cause they some how represented my dad. I was a hurt kid, looking for answers, and i couldn't find any. i joined the Marines, and after becoming a marine still my heart was broken, while in the Corp i became sargent of arms of an outlaw motorcycle club, by taking the colors of the former one, a position I later walk away from. While in the Corps i began struggling with seizures i would black out and go crazy i didn't know what was happening, they didn't call it PTSD back then after getting out of the Marines, i was searching for inner healing, drugs and alcohol everything i could find to fill the void, but i was still broken. My nick name on the streets of NY was Chico El Loco kid the crazy i started dealing drugs and did a lot of fighting to prove myself, being a Marine and trained by my father i thought i was invincible until one day a group guys gave the beating of my life, so i started carrying weapons guns, knives, whatever would give me advantage but still on the inside i was angry and hurt.
i cried a lot when i was alone and never new why. i could watch a sad movie or anything that had touching things in it, cause even though i had a tough outside, i was a hurt broken kid on the inside.
Soon i found myself sitting in jail and i got in a battle with the guards which gave me bragging rights in jail cause it took 12 guards to put me down, not very impressive considering what a beating I took that day. Finally holding me down on the ground they shot me with thorazine in both arms and put me on two seizure drugs i took one 6 times a day and one 8 times so they kept me sedated.
i was in the hole or solitary as they call it! And a inmate (a Trustee) came to bring me my food and told me that Jesus Christ loved me, but i was jewish and didn't believe in Jesus. I wanted to hurt this kid, but he kept saying that Jesus loved me & had healed him and could heal me too. So i went to church with him just to get him off my back, but something happened in church that day, Jesus Christ did something to me i can't explain. Following the service the Chaplain came to see me a Pastor Austin and ask me if i wanted to accept Jesus Christ into my heart. He told me to try Jesus and if I didn't like him the devil would always take me back. So i did ask Jesus Christ to come into my life that day and He change my life. (Jesus Christ The Gift Of God Set me Free!)
i got convicted of conspiracy to commit murder along with a few other charges but i didn't do the conspiracy, and that was the main charge. i did everything else but not that!
At the time I didn't know that Jesus Christ was working in this, (because although i was not guilty of this charge i was guilty of things that i belonged in prison for, for a long long time, what you sow is what you reap.(Gal.6)
i ended up in three prisons in NY but my final destination was Attica. i studied the Bible every day attended Buffalo School of the Bible while in Attica, i also began ministerial studies with Berean Bible College, which i completed with a Ministerial Degree. For Three years at Attica the Lord Jesus used me to minister to inmates and guards, and i met a lot of great brothers in Christ. My case was overturned 3 years latter, by the Supreme Court, the amazing Christ had once again saved me! The Lord called me into the ministry and i worked at a united Methodist Church, with my Bible Study Teacher from Attica Prison, Pastor Norman Farrington, first as a youth Pastor and then Assist Pastor as i continued College courses! Now i am a Chaplain working in three facilities in RI and i am so blessed to see Christ work in the lives of other inmates as He worked in mine!
( Oh by the way i had the opportunity to pray with my dad to receive Christ in 1988 in a hotel room in Rhode Island, with my family, and we forgave each other and Christ healed our relationship and a year later he passed and i believe went to Heaven. i am sure i'll see him again Thank You Jesus). i also wanted to Praise Jesus Christ cause He healed me of cancer 29 years ago! (Psalm 103:1-6)
i have learned that Jesus Christ Is Lord, and i am sure of it. i know that all of you reading this have been broken in some way, and Jesus Christ came to heal our broken hearts. Jesus Christ is alive, and wants to heal you! Isaiah 61:1, Luke 4:18
I was in part time ministry I worked a full time job when I found out I had cancer, a tumor removed from my neck revealed a very aggressive cancer, I was told I needed chemotherapy, and radiation. Our fourth child was just born. I believed in Jesus Christ, but there was something missing. I found a cassette tape by gloria copeland it was all Scripture on Healing, I was already studying to know what I was to do at this point, and I wore the cassette out listening to it because Christ used her to give His Word and His word only. my faith In Jesus Christ Came From The WORD OF GOD. i went and was anointed by the elders of our church who i knew Believed, after that i refused the chemotherapy and radiation. i was loosing weight and many were telling me to go for the treatments but THE WORD OF GOD SAID OTHERWISE. as i was driving to a bible study I head a voice in my car, I started weeping uncontrollably an then heard second time, Eli Eli Lama Sabachthani. i could not see through the tears and pulled over, then in English MY MY GOD WHY HAST THOU FORSAKEN ME, i asked THE LORD what was happen to me, THE VOICE, asked me if i knew why JESUS CHRIST SAID THIS, i said LORD i don't Please help me understand. THE LORD SAID SO you would never have to say it. PRAISE JESUS CHRIST FOR BEING FORSAKEN FOR me! Yes i was healed, and still am 32 years later. Psalm 103:1-5
As a chaplain where i share the Hope That Is In Christ, and have seen many men and women come to Christ just because of the Work Of The Word Of God Jesus Christ. Psalm 107:20 He Sent His Word, And Healed them, and delivered them from their destructions! One more thing the Bible says that Jesus will come when we least expect Him so if you are not ready get ready. Jesus said to Come to Him, and He will take care of the rest! Forgiveness is Christ's gift to us all, ask for it in the name of Jesus Christ and be healed! Prayer: Father in the Name Of Jesus Christ Forgive my sin, i open my life and ask You Jesus to come into me. Help me and make me the person that You Created me to be! In the Name Of Jesus Christ i pray amen! If you prayed that prayer you opened your heart, and Jesus said He would come in, (Rev. 3:19-20) so He is In your heart right now! Christ Bless You! Welcome to the family! Pastor Mike
