1 Peter 2:13-17 (New International Version)

13 Submit yourselves for the Lord's sake to every authority instituted among men: whether to the king, as the supreme authority, 14 or to governors, who are sent by him to punish those who do wrong and to commend those who do right. 15 For it is God's will that by doing good you should silence the ignorant talk of foolish men. 16 Live as free men, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as servants of God. 17 Show proper respect to everyone: Love the brotherhood of believers, fear God, honor the king.

Wally was born in Hastings, Nebraska, and was then relocated shortly after to Colorado with his family.  He was raised, schooled, and then entered the workforce in the suburbs of Denver.  In pursuit of an aviation position with Netjets, Inc., Wally relocated to Columbus, Ohio in 1999.  He now lives in Fairfield County (Lancaster, Ohio), where God has called him into various ministries across the county and state for advancing the Kingdom.

He gives thanks to his parents for raising him in a God fearing home, and attended church from the age of a young child.  It wasn't until he recommitted his life to Christ as an adult that he was called into ministry. God has richly blessed his footsteps across Fairfield County in various ministries.  He began to serve the Lord as the Christian Action Director of his local church.  In that role, he was tasked with presenting various ministries to the congregation, and enlisting them to participate in these works in the community.  He is currently the Assistant County Coordinator of the National Day of Prayer (Fairfield County), Adopt-a-Leader Chairman (Fairfield County), County Coordinator for Cry Out America (Fairfield County), a Task Force Member of the National Day of Prayer (State of Ohio), and the founder of the 40DAYPRAYER4USA prayer event (Nationwide).

Through his extensive travels (both domestic and international) in a 15+ year career in aviation, he has seen the great need for Christ in this world.  Experiencing the different religions, governments, and people of other nations have also given him a great sense of the blessings that God truly bestowed upon America.  Wally learned over the course of meeting many prominent figures in government and entertainment in the past, that we must truly pray for all men, especially those that God has placed in authority over us.  Wally feels lead to focus his prayer for this nation and for those that serve us in positions of leadership.

Wally is happily married to his wife Jen, and has six beautiful children: Avery (14), Abby (9), Rowan (7), Rhett (5), Anna (4), and Reileigh (1).
