Trey Assunto
My name is Trey Assunto. I was born in Houston and raised in Beaumont when my parents moved to Beaumont to take over and run the Men's Discount Shop on 11th street. I come from a large family with nearly 55 people on my Dad's side and 80 people on my Mom's side, first cousins only. Being from South Louisiana, my family is Cajun and Italian making for some tasty meals, dancing like nobody's watching and spirited debates.
I was fortunate enough to grow up in a house where love abounded and was introduced to Christ at a young age. However, I did not always follow Christ and did my own thing until the age of 29 when a failed marriage pushed me down a path of historic lows.
In October of 2002 I gave my life to Christ and then in 2006 met my current wife Joy of almost 15 years. We have two beautiful children, both of which are adopted and have amazing testimonies themselves. We are residents of Sour Lake TX and enjoy most of our free time in and near water, bluewater fishing, inshore fishing, skiing and pleasure cruising.
I have worked in the oil and gas sector for almost 23 years selling valves, actuators and sight glasses. I left my former company, in 2019, to start my own company and by God's grace and provision we are surviving one of the toughest years to be in business. We exist to further the Gospel, in whatever way the Good Shepherd lays on our heart. We measure success by the number of feet washed and the number of hearts changed. The rest, in my opinion, is only the vehicle.
