Background of Daniel Harris

Daniel Aaron Harris was born on October 19,1980 at Baptist East Hospital in Memphis, Tn. He has two younger sisters, Jennifer and Christa. Daniel has lived all his life in Memphis. He attended Shrine School for the Handicapped and graduated in May, 2000 Class Valedictorian. Following high school, Daniel attended Crichton College where he graduated in 2002 with a Certificate in Biblical Studies. After graduation, Daniel started a downtown outreach ministry called Fallen Walls.

At nine months of age, Daniel was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy, a condition affecting basic motor skills, such as walking and talking. His parents were told not to expect much from him in these areas and that he would probably never be able to walk on his own or communicate clearly. Instead, Daniel’s determination and faith in God brought him to where he is today. Inspite of some minor difficulties, Daniel is President and founder of Fallen Walls where he ministers to the lost and the homeless, but he also teaches and speaks at various places.
