About Our AMS:
Ray has been married to his lovely wife, Ivy, since April 1997. Ivy has a heart for women's ministry and has begun speaking at women's events and conferences. They have two grown sons. Nathan is a college student who works and lives in the Arden, NC area. Caleb is married to Halle, who is pregnant with their first child due in January 2025. They live in Greensboro, where they are both working college students. Ray and Ivy are excited to be first-time grandparents and plan to spoil her to no end!
Ray studied at Fruitland Baptist Bible College where he earned an Associate's Degree in Religion/Christian Ministries (2010); went to The College at Southeastern where he earned a Bachelor of Arts in Pastoral Ministry (2023); and is currently attending Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary where he expects to earn a Master of Arts in Church Revitalization (2025).
He has served in different types of pastoral ministry over the last twenty years and believes that all of that experience has helped prepare him for God's calling into the role of Associational Missions Strategist. He is excited to see the churches of the GRBA partner together in an even greater way moving forward to impact lostness in Rutherford County and beyond...
