October is Pastor Appreciation month. We want to stop and highlight our five pastors and their wives.
Pastor Richard (Our no bones about it Southern Apologist)
has been serving as a volunteer pastor at ABC for about 9 years. Richard’s passion at ABC is arming believers in apologetics and assisting the other Pastors in building a community dedicated to the Body of Christ.

He preaches often and teaches in our Ambassadors College. He and his Wife routinely blesses ABC with her art skill, and they both served in the US Marine Corps before relocating to North Idaho.

Richard and Leslie have been married 24 years and have 3 children. In their “free” time they enjoy horseback riding, Jujitsu, skiing, dirt biking, hiking, and all the other various activities of their children. The Alderson’s are so thankful for the Lord’s grace in being able to have recreation in His creation, and for their current chaotic season of parental bliss.

In the comments below please show your appreciation.
