Meet Pastor Ron & Gwen
Pastor Ron and his wife, Gwen have been happily married for 62 years and have been serving their Lord in ministry for 50 of those years. Ron was raised in Oroville and graduated from Oroville High School in the great year of 1957 (the good old days!). His wife, Gwen, was born in Live Oak, but raised in Gridley and is a graduate of Gridley High School in 1960. They have two wonderful children, four super grandchildren, and one wonderful great grandchild. The goal of their marriage is that Christ would be exalted and they would be a living example (object lesson) of Christ's relationship to His church and the believer's relationships to Him.
Pastor Ron graduated from Western Baptist College (B.S.), Denver Seminary (M.Div), and has done Doctor of Ministry studies at Dallas Seminary. God, in His grace, has used Pastor Ron and Gwen to start two new churches and rebuild two struggling churches over their 50+ years of pastoral ministry.
After 27 years of joyful ministry in Indio, Ca. God brought them back to Oroville in retirement. Little did they know that one of the reasons God brought them back here was to Pastor the Oroville Campus of Grace Chapel Indio which they started in their home 34 years ago.
Along with the joys of pastoral ministry God has allowed them to travel extensively around the world and be involved in ministry to Pastors in many different countries: Philippines, Ecuador, France, India to name a few. They are NOW EXCITED to see what God in His sovereignty will accomplish here in Oroville through Grace Chapel.
