Paul M Wilbur, Board of Directors, San Joaquin Valley Men’s Ministries In 1976, God had a divine appointment scheduled and a woman named Diane was the viaduct that our Heavenly Father used. She showed me how loving, gracious and merciful our God IS!! Three years later, our blessed union had begun.

God has blessed me with a business, where I can teach people how to drive and share the Gospel with EVERYONE who puts on a seatbelt. I enjoy all styles of Christian music and use it as the “door opener” with students.

I currently attend Temple Baptist Church and serve on the Property Management Team, teach Sunday School and sing with one of our many Worship Teams.
