Rick Huber

Pastor of Family Ministries

My wife Jeanne and I have been married 47 years.  We have 3 children and 4 grandchildren.  I graduated from Carleton College in Northfield MN with a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology.   I asked Jesus in my heart to be my Lord and Savior in October 1973.  In 1977 Jeanne and I experienced our first mission assignment with A Christian Ministry in the National Parks.  But serving in a local church became our calling.  I have served as a pastor for 42 years. I graduated with a Master of Divinity degree from Bethel Theological Seminary and completed all required class work toward a Doctor of Divinity Degree.  But, life got in the way.   In December of 1993, I was called to be a bi-vocational pastor at MVBC.  I have been employed in business administration for the last 16 years. Life does get in the way, but it also provides endless opportunities to offer salvation to others.
