Rev Ron Richmond to be the 2025 Evangelist at IVHA

Rev. Ron Richmond is an ordained minister. Currently, he is serving as an evangelist, which he has done twice before and has preached in 10 different denominations. From June, 2010 to April, 2024 he was the Lead Pastor at the First Church of the Nazarene in Highland, IN. Highland is extremely strong spiritually and financially. The commitment level of the board members as well as the average attender is unusually high for an American church today.

Before Ron went to Highland, he was a Youth Pastor in two churches and a Senior Pastor in three churches, as well as an evangelist for 11 years. He has been the guest speaker for revivals, camp meetings, SS Conventions, retreats and for pastors’ conferences. In 2001 Ron received specialized training as a consultant in church health from Natural Church Development, and from New Church Specialties as a coach to pastors on refocusing. (“Returning the focus of the church to God’s original intention, making disciples.”) So when Ron was an evangelist, he also served as a consultant to pastors, church boards and churches.

Ron has also been a motivational speaker for non-profit organizations like the Red Cross and for corporations like Primerica, Zondervan and Impra.

Ron’s greatest joy is to be used by God in a way that produces spiritual change in the lives of people. “Changed lives” is what ministry is all about to Ron, and that’s what he has watched God do in amazing ways for many years.

Brother Ron will be bringing the word each evening during camp at the 7:00 pm service.  He will also be teaching an adult Bible Study each morning at 10:30 am.  The Sunday schedule will be the same as in the past with Brother Ron preaching at 10:30 am, 2:00 pm, and 7:00 pm.  We look forward to having you join us this year to see what the Lord has to show us.
