Kevin Smalls has been a member of Solid Rock since 2004. Since that time he has demonstrated his passion for God and his gifts in several ministries at our church ranging from drama to discipleship ministry. At the age of 15, Kevin led his first bible study to 5th graders and has always valued the importance of discipleship at an early age.

Kevin and his wife Valerie are also the leaders of our Missions Ministry Program to the Dominican Republic. Since taking on this role, they have coordinated several fundraising programs, awareness events, and missions trips to the town of Mira Cielo (San Cristobal) in the Dominican Republic.

As a community leader, Kevin serves as a sergeant in the New York Police Department. Kevin is a faithful husband and proud father of 3 children. Together with his wife Valerie, they involve the entire family in ministry and servant evangelism, both in and out of the church. He is man who loves the Lord and is a servant in all aspects of the word.
From Elder Claude: 

"I find it an honor and a privilege to have been asked to be an Elder.  It is not a ministry that I take lightly.  In this ministry, most importantly we serve our Lord, but we also serve the Pastor and congregation.  We strive to honor God with all he has blessed us with and pray that our lives bring Him glory and praise.  As Joshua said, to the Israelites “But, as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord. (Joshua 24:15b)
