He built a foundation as a faithful and zealous servant; he was a faithful pioneer for twenty-nine years, having the privilege to serve in many local states: Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Maryland, Rhode Island, Florida, Georgia, Virginia and North Carolina. Gus set a wonderful example for the love he had for the ministry, strongly centering his life to preach and teach the truth of God’s word the Bible.
