Rick Spies

Rev. Rick Spies grew up loving to listen to the stories told by his grandparents and others of their generation. In many ways they shaped his view of the world—not least through their faith. After teaching in Zambia for almost a decade (again listening to tales of the elders) he served as a United Church of Canada minister for more than thirty years, again listening and learning. He’s now retired and about to become a grandparent himself.
