Adam Blaisdell – Born in the St Louis MO area, Adam made a decision for Christ at a Christian summer camp when He was 12. “I had a moment where I knew God was asking me to make a decision to put my trust in Him. It wasn’t pressed on me or even asked by an adult. Looking back on it I know the Holy Spirit was at work in that moment. I also have come to realize the importance my parents had in putting me in places and situations where God had the opportunity to speak to me. 35 years later as a father of 2 I know the importance of doing the same for my children, and in no more important way than praying for them consistently and allowing God to work in moments where He becomes real to them.” Adam resides in the Saratoga Springs NY area with his bride Jackie and their 2 children, Elena and Ethan. He serves in his local church and with a missions organization, having a heart for discipleship and prayer. He works professionally in sales and in the information sciences.
