Thurman was brought up in the church and participated in all the church activities; however, it wasn’t until much later in life that he truly accepted Christ as his Lord and Savior and has been a faithful and dedicated servant since.

Thurman is and has been a faithful servant at Covenant Life Fellowship since its inception. He was instrumental in starting the Sunday School program where he taught until the church went virtual. Thurman faithfully serves on the CLF Executive Ministry Board, in the Deacons ministry, as the treasurer/ financial secretary, and serving as the audio visual and broadcast streaming lead.
Thurman is currently enrolled at North Eastern Regional Bible College where he seeks his bachelor’s degree in Theology.
