Dr. Arthur Minnehan, Jr.
Thank you for taking a moment to check out our leadership team. Choosing a Christian Church family is one of the most important decisions you can make for yourself and for your family. Allow me to take a moment to tell you a little about myself, my family, my journey with the Lord Jesus Christ, and our Church Family. My Family: My wife Angie and I were high school sweethearts and married shortly after our high school graduation in 1990. The Lord has blessed us over the years with two wonderful daughters Alisha and Amber, two great sons-in-law Demetri and Colton, both serving the Lord in ministry, and to date we have five awesome grandchildren. Angie and I love spending time with our family and our Church family. We also love eating out, binge watching old television shows and traveling to the beach. A Little About Myself and My Journey with Jesus Christ: I came to Jesus Christ in my early childhood and knew from a very young age that I would serve Him in ministry. Angie and I have been blessed to serve the Lord in Pastoral ministry for more than thirty years. Over the years I have also been blessed by the Lord to earn four theological degrees: B.A. Pastoral Ministry, M.A. Biblical Counseling, M. Divinity Pastoral Ministry, D.M. Pastoral Leadership. Our Church Family: Angie and I came to Fulton Creek Evangelical Friends Church in August of 2021. You will not find a more inviting, loving and Biblically dedicated Christian Church family. Fulton Creek Friends has a long honorable history in the community of Richwood and throughout the surrounding communities. We are committed to growing both numerically and spiritually. Our vision and mission are simple, ‘Each One, Reach One’. We accomplish this by personally sharing the good news of Jesus Christ with others and then helping those we reach begin growing in their walk and fellowship with Jesus Christ. If you are looking for a safe and loving Church for you and your family, come and experience the Lord’s presence here. Life Verse: “Commit your way to the Lord, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass.” (Psalm 37:5)

Outreach Elder

Outreach Elder, Ed Kapraly
Together with my wife Pam, we raised two children in this church and consider this to be one of the most important features of their development during their formative years. Our kids were active in the Christmas Programs, Praise Team and other events even as young children. This, we believe, gave them the confidence needed to interact with other people which has helped them in the lives and jobs they have now. Today Pam and I work to extend God's love throughout our community through church outreach. We see the blessings that God has bestowed upon this church and believe these need to be taken into our local community to show His love for us. This includes working with homeless families and sending food home with local school children that need it. If you are looking for a church that is Biblically sound, outwardly focused, and loves people then please visit our church, get to know us and hopefully find your new church home!
