My name is Craig Washington and I am a Christian Life Coach. I specialize in counseling and mentoring from teens to adults. I have been in ministry for over 25 years, I have worked as a Youth Pastor, and currently Co-Pastor of The Bread House Holland Church in Holland MI. I love helping people reach their spiritual objectives in life using the word of God “the Bible”. I obtained my certification from the International Association of Professional Career College.
One of my beliefs is that you need to have strong relationship with God and along with faith. Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen. I encourage everyone to look beyond their faults and soar like eagles above their difficulties, hurts, pains, issues of life and find love, joy, and peace.
