High School students — mark your calendars for one of our most impactful events of the year! Bibles, Blankets & Burgers (BBB) is happening Saturday, November 15th, and we’re heading into downtown Chicago to serve those in need by handing out Bibles, warm blankets, and hot burgers — and more importantly, sharing the love and hope of Jesus.
This is an incredible opportunity to step out in faith, meet real needs, and be a light in the city. Whether it’s your first time or you’ve joined us before, BBB is always a powerful day of serving, — both for those we meet and for us.
Train Departure Times:
Rolling Meadows – 9:29 AM
Crystal Lake – 9:03 AM
Elgin – 8:55 AM
Aurora – 9:10 AM
We’ll return later that afternoon.

I studied Preaching, Youth Ministry, and the Bible at Johnson Bible College. I am currently the Campus Pastor at HBC Aurora. Married to Melissa for 7 1/2 years and we have a dog named Sadie and we love serving in students because we love their passion and servants heart for the church and the world.
I serve at the Elgin campus. I have served as the Student Pastor at Harvest for about 4 years. I am an alumnus of Moody Bible Institute and am completing my Masters of Theology at Dallas Theological Seminary. Before coming to Harvest, I was a part of a church plant in the Elgin area. My wife, Faby, and I have been married for two years and live in Elgin. I am beyond blessed to be a part of this community!
I’m from Langhorne, Pennsylvania (near Philly). I graduated from Liberty in 2019 and started a 2-year pastoral residency program on staff at 12Stone Church in the northeast suburbs of Atlanta. In 2021 I started at Harvest where I now serve in ministry at the Rolling Meadows campus and also met my amazing wife Stephanie. I love helping students to pursue the Lord, teaching them to love Him more than anything else, and seeing them reach their friends for Jesus.
