My name is Christopher Nolte. I am the founder of PVL Ministries. I am a follower of Jesus Christ. Have I always been a follower of Jesus Christ? No, and that is my story. My father served 32 years in the US Army and we moved around a lot. I spent my early years in Germany, middle years in Kentucky, and then High School and first year of college in Germany. Through all these moves my Mom made sure that we were in church on Sunday morning. Catholic church if it all possible. That is another part of the story I may deal with later. The point is I grew up knowing God existed and following all the Godly rules. Basically I was a good kid that rarely if ever got into trouble. I knew God existed but I didn't know about Jesus and the relationship that I needed to have with him. This is the story of my life and how PVL came to be.
Why PVL? PeriVentricular Leukomalacia is a birth defect that affects premature babies. My daughter was born 2 1/2 months early. Early on she had a brain bleed that caused a small portion of her brain to die. PVL. With God's blessing and much early intervention therapy and wonderful medical care her brain was able to rewire itself. She will always have PVL but she has over overcome it and is now an adult doing great things for the Lord. Here is the link to part of her story. https://youtu.be/yyoCYM2jMtU?si=nink7oU5O9aixr9a. For more of her story see my YouTube channel PVL Ministry. The full story will be on there at some point in the near future.
I want others to know Jesus and not have to deal with all the worldly stuff that I went through and am still going through. Is it easy, no. Jesus never promised easy. He promised salvation to those who believe and trust in Him. It's time for me to be bold, step up and tell my story. I hope to do that through this ministry of love and compassion for those waiting and hoping for a miracle in the waiting rooms of local hospitals. I have seen first hand how God can work miracles in these places. I've seen the other side and know that are times when people need God to get them through the really hard times in life. I have a team of prayer warriors set up and ready to go. If you need prayer please email us and we will fervently pray for you. This is my mission now. To spread the love of Jesus Christ in this ever darkening world.
