Rick Smith | Executive Pastor
Ordained through Redemption Ministerial Fellowship
international, Elder Rick and his wife Judy have been in covenant with Apostles
Ron & Hope and RWOC for 12 of the majority RWOC’s existence. They spent the
25 years prior to joining RWOC running a successful business venture, teaching,
and raising their 3 children while maintaining a heavy involvement in volunteer
church work.
In January of 2000, Apostle Ron asked Rick to take over as
leader of the Elder ministry. This led to an offer to come on board in 2001 as
a full-time employee to help Apostle Ron oversee the 200 employees, 150
ministries, and over 10,000 members.
Eventually, Judy made the decision to give up her teaching
career to come to the aid of her husband at RWOC.
Today, Rick is the Executive Pastor at RWOC. He has
oversight of all Executive and Support Staff as well as the pastoral duties and
ministries of the church.
Rick and Judy count it all joy and a tremendous honor to
have been chosen by God and Apostles Ron and Hope to fill this vital role in
such a special local body of believers.
