Gary D'Aquino
I have been a member of Our Savior Lutheran Church since 1990 and the leader of the confirmation program since 1991. Confirmation ministry has been the joy of my life. The team of volunteers who help with this program are invaluable. I thank God for the opportunity to come to know and love these students.
My wife Barbara and I do all the pre-marriage counselling for those couples who want to get married at Our Savior. We also do marriage, family and addiction counselling. We both thank God for allowing us to help others this way.
As Pastor's assistant, I preach when he is away and try to lighten his workload in any way that I can. Barbara and I also love to welcome our new members by inviting them to our home for fellowship and Bible study.
I am so grateful to be a part of such a vibrant, God-seeking, Bible-believing church. One of the things I am most thankful for is that Pastor has given me the opportunity (and the Church has supported me) in missionary work. Through Our Savior I have brought the love of Jesus to people in India, Africa, West Virginia, New Orleans, Alabama, South Dakota, Niagara Falls, and Centereach. I am blessed to serve God in such a wonderful place.
