Upon moving to Pennsylvania the first time, Dennis started on the road of answering the call to ministry, but his family was relocated to SC with work, where he started the ministry process again. After a year, His family was moved back to the Pittsburgh area and during this period he became a Licensed Local Pastor with the UMC, serving as Associate Pastor of Garden City UMC in Monroeville. Dennis served in that capacity until his family was relocated to Land O Lakes, Florida, where he became leader of the Praise Team and served as a lay speaker in the church.
