WORSHIP LEADER JEREMY BOBAK DEEPENS OUR PRAYER EACH DAY

Now a Syracuse local, Jeremy works as a music minister at Divine Mercy Parish in Central Square, NY and has traveled throughout New York State leading worship. He also works with the Diocese of Syracuse Office of Evangelization leading worship for Thrive events throughout the diocese.
