Pastor Rick & E
Wise
Hi. I am Pastor Rick Wise. My wife’s name is Eileene but most people know her as “E.” We have three grown children Stephanie, Marty and Tina and 10 grandchildren. E and I have been married for over 45 years. I was born in Anchorage, AK in October, 1953. In May of 1954 my parents moved to Homer where I have lived the Alaskan dream. Like many Alaskans, I’ve been a commercial fisherman and construction worker. I enjoy camping, hiking, fishing, hunting, biking and snow-machining. From a young age I felt God’s call on my life. My preparation for ministry included three years attending an Aircraft Mechanic School in Wichita Falls, Texas where I met my wife. In January of 1977, we attended Piedmont Bible College in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, and graduated in 1982. We then moved to Winona Lake, Indiana where I attended Grace Seminary, graduating in 1985. I have had the great privilege of pastoring my home church since 1985. It has been a joy to see what God has done. I hope that you will get an opportunity to visit our church and met all the wonderful people that make Glacierview a great church.
Pastor Andy & Jackie Miller
Andy grew up in a small town in northwest Pennsylvania. He joined the Navy in 2000 and met Jackie in Washington state where they were married in 2004. Andy and Jackie moved back to Pennsylvania in 2005 where Andy received his call to pastoral ministry. He graduated from Grand Canyon University and continued on to seminary, getting his master’s degree from Liberty University. In 2010, Andy and Jackie were appointed to their first pastorate in Canton, Ohio. Andy continued his service with the Navy, this time in the reserves, as a Chaplain until he was medically discharged in 2016. It was at this same time that the Lord called them to minster here at Glacerview Baptist Church (2016).
Andy and Jackie enjoy game nights with friends, watching movies together, and boating & fishing. They have a beautiful husky, Breezy, who they love spending time with and taking for walks on the beach.
