In May of 2004, Pastor Ayres graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Church Ministries.  Denver began college single, married his second year, and each year following added one child!  He is currently enrolled and close to his Masters Degree in Church Ministries through Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia.

Denver and Ginny believe in the blessings of long term ministry and in the power of Church family! Denver does lots of studying in God's word and has been learning to share his studies online with his own blog.
