The Plumbing Ministry

The Plumbing Ministry plumbing company was created in 2006 for obedience to Jesus Christ & the faith of Christianity, gifted to Louis E. J. Ray Sr. born in Berkeley, California 11/15/1974.

In 1999, the Lord Jesus Christ rescued Louis from a life of crime, defeat, and hopelessness. After being called into the Plumbing Trade, through prayer, by a childhood friend (Jason Everette), Louis started at Harry Clark Plumbing, out of Oakland, CA. As a driver (10/2002), Louis was promoted to foreman after three short months and fell in love with the trade.

After 1yr at Harry Clark, ownership offered full paid trade school. Louis accepted and started learning at the PHCC apprenticeship program. Louis learned blueprint reading and materials recognition. Louis also learned plumbing systems design, sizing, installation, alteration, repair, replacement, and testing of the drain, vent, water supply, gas supply, water heater, finish plumbing, and troubleshooting. After 18 months of employment at Harry Clark, Louis was fired as a result of being falsely accused of stealing by an elder employee, with no evidence.
