Curtis Rider serves as the Associate Pastor of Student Ministries. Graduating from Moody Bible Institute (B.A.) and Moody Theological Seminary (M.A.), and serving as the youth director at Judson Baptist Church during his time as a student prepared him to join the team at Calvary in 2019.
Curtis grew up in Warsaw, Indiana and loves sports, fishing, hunting, and winding down the day with a glass of whole milk. Together, Curtis and Anneliese (married in 2016) enjoy doing just about anything, such as playing games, eating ice cream, and people watching.
“It is a privilege to serve in a church that loves teenagers and wants them to grow in their love for the Lord,” Curtis says. “My prayer is that God will use me to disciple these teens to seek God and His Word before anything else.”
