About Me I grew up in Groves, Texas (in the Beaumont-Pt.Arthur area). I graduated from Pt. Neches-Groves High School in 1964. Then I went to college at Millsaps College in Jackson, MS, graduating in 1968; and to seminary at St. Paul School of Theology in Kansas City, Mo., graduating in 1971. I was married in 1968. After seminary, I was the pastor of churches in Texas until moving to Iowa in 1978. After 33 years of ministry, I took early retirement in 2002, and am buying a home in Estherville, IA. My wife and I have three children and one grandchild. Since retirement, I have worked in sales and telemarketing, have been involved in home based businesses, and am currently a Shaklee distributor.

My Christian faith comes first in my life. I am also an avid environmentalist, am strongly "pro-life," and am interested in natural health and nutrition. I am an avid, life-long Dodger fan, and watch all the Denver Broncos and Notre Dame football games I can see on TV. I love music, and like to sing. I also spend most of my life, it seems, on the computer, and have several websites: www.3DChristianGrowth.homestead.com, www.DarleneZschech.homestead.com, and www.homesong.ws

Wild Fact About Me
My Philosophy
What Gives Me Hope 1)the truth of my favorite quote: "In all things God works together for good for those who love the Lord, who are called according to His purposes." - Romans 8:28
2)the growing concern among fellow Christians and others for caring for the earth
3) the human compassion that becomes evident in times of crisis
If I were Mayor, I'd make the world a better place by 1) resigning! I don't want the job; or
2) making respect for life - all of life - a priority
