Rick previously served as the National FCF President and currently is a National FCF Field Advisor.
Rick came to the national Royal Rangers office from Oakley, California in February 2000. Prior to their move to Northern California in 1992 they resided in Grover Beach, CA. When he was 12 years old his family moved from Oklahoma to Southern California.
Rick has been involved in the Royal Ranger Ministry since 1978. If you really want to see Rick get “excited” just start talking about Frontiersmen Camping Fellowship. You will see this is his passion, second only to seeing boys coming to the altars. Rick said, “FCF is a very special and unique tool that God has provided for commanders to reach more boys for Christ but the fun part is mentoring! What more exciting thing is there than to see a new FCF’er build his first flint and steel fire or stick his first tomahawk. Take that new FCF’er to his first Trace or Rendezvous and watch him learn to trade for his first piece of an outfit. Tell me this ministry is not the most awesome adventure a Royal Ranger Commander could be involved in!”
Rick’s interests include spending time with his family, camping, and hunting. He enjoys speaking at FCF events, Royal Rangers Pow Wows, and Men’s events. His vision is to see all of our boys have the opportunity to ask Jesus Christ our Master Ranger into their heart as Lord and Savior and then to train them up in the Ranger way so as to become real Men, Warriors for God.
