For Pastor Rick, it is hard to remember a time when Mount Hope was not a part of his life. His relationship with Jesus began at eight years old through Mount Hope’s Royal Rangers ministry. Pastor Rick attended college at Evangel University earning a degree in Biblical studies. He continued his education at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary earning a Master’s of Divinity and a Master’s in Preaching. While in college he met his wife Wendy, and after graduation they entered into full time ministry. Today, they are the proud parents of Isaac, born May 2005, and Isabella, born June 2008. In the summer, on his days away from the office, Pastor Rick can be found either on the golf course perfecting his swing or on his family’s boat navigating the waters of the Merrimack River. In the winter he can be found dreaming about golfing and boating. Pastor Rick’s prayer is that the people of Mount Hope would continue to fall in love with Christ and have their lives transformed by the Holy Spirit’s presence in their life. |
