Pastor Ricky and his wife, Autumn, met while studying at Missouri Western State University. They have two boys named, Finnegan and Charlie and a baby girl named Eloise. The Sands Family joined us in 2020. Ricky has a degree in Criminal Justice with an emphasis in Juvenile Delinquency. While working as a Juvenile Officer the Lord called him to full time ministry. Ricky is passionate about God's Word, the Church and telling the world about Jesus. He fully embraces the title of "Coffee Snob", enjoys spending time with his family, road trips, picking on a guitar, writing, and reading books by dead guys. He has been slowly pursuing furthered education at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary as each season of life allows for it.
