Here I am with my beautiful wife, Katherine. We married in 2000. |
Beginnings
Paul A. Nierengarten grew up in the Catholic faith at Saint Francis Xavier where he served as an altar boy and was involved in Youth Group. He had a confirmation ceremony in the Spring of 1992 with the late Bishop George H. Speltz. After graduating from Sartell High School in 1994, Paul moved to Minneapolis where he encountered an evangelist who saw a call on his life. Paul was living the life of a rocker at this time.
Transformation
Paul was approached by Evangelist John Berger and was encouraged to return to a life dedicated to Christ. Paul eventually responded, long story, and rededicated his life to the Lord in July of 1999. He grew in the Evangelical faith to further compliment his Catholic up-bringing at United Deliverance Temple, at United Nations Church, and through a personal writing ministry.
Experience
Paul has served in the investment and custody industry as a securities operations specialist for Wells Fargo before he experienced a call to writing, ministry, and teaching. Paul has studied under and assisted Bishop Elmer Alexander and Pastor Byron D. Alexander in ministry for the past several years in North Minneapolis. He has taught Sunday School at Church of the Open Door in Maple Grove. He has experience in preaching, writing, orating, music, and teaching.
