Graduating from San Diego State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration with an emphasis in Accounting, Pastor Kennedy worked as an accounting clerk, a bookkeeper and a cost accountant in a manufacturing firm.
 

Having received a foundation of commitment to Christ, and hard work from childhood from his father and mother (Bradford and Evelyn Kennedy), and his church family in Sacramento, Calif. (St. Paul Missionary Baptist Church), his life goal is to live out servant leadership among the Mt. Zion Church of Ontario congregation, and beyond, to the end that God is glorified in His church by Christ Jesus (Ephesians 3:20 -21).
 

He was encouraged to attend seminary by Dr. S.M.
