Tony and Christine Candelerio City and State you and your spouse were reared: I was born in Newark, NJ and Christine was born in Nairobi, Kenya How long have you been members of Straightway Baptist Church? 2 years, since the beginning Who invited you to join our church, or what interested you in joining our church?The dynamic preaching of Pastor Guarneri and his dedication and committment to the Lord

Comments about Pastor Guarneri: He makes you want to strive to be a better person and a better Christian. He wants you to continue to grow. He is genuinely interested in you. You are not just a number to him. He makes you feel appreciated.

Interesting story, incident, or answer to prayer: Christine was unemployed and Pastor G not only recommended her to a location in Princeton.  He did not only recommend her, but also prayed for her. Because of this, Christine was offered employment. God working through Pastor G.

Give us your salvation testimony. I was attending another church when I first met Christine. We had made a deal. I would attend one service at SBBC and then she would attend one service at the church that I was attending. I went to SBBC and she refused to attend my church. I decided that I would attend SBBC. She was TOO CUTE to argue with.



Give us your spouse’s testimony:Christine started going to SBBC in 1992... And for a long time Christine would come to church on and off and each time Christine came Pastor G. would get her “new address”. Christine would come home and found that he had visited her. She continued to grow as a Christian. It’s nice to know that Pastor G. never gave up on her.
