Rick's Story

Rick is Co-Founder and Director of Brother-to-Brother Ministries. He is a highly decorated Vietnam veteran and retired Air Force officer. His awards and decorations include the Silver Star, the Distinguished Flying Cross, the Purple Heart, the Air Medal with two oak-leaf clusters, and the Vietnamese Cross of Gallantry with Bronze Star. Rick has lived in Taiwan, and he and his family have lived in California, Spain, Arkansas, Italy (twice) and the Philippines. Rick and his wife Karen were married in the Philippines in 1975. He came into full communion with the Catholic Church in 1982. Since that time, Rick has been actively involved with Catholic parishes all around the world. He joined the Cursillo Movement in 1987 in the Philippines and also founded and led a renewal group in the Philippines from 1987-89. Rick has been involved with men's small group Bible studies for many years and has facilitated couples' Bible studies. After retiring from the Air Force in 1993, Rick and his family settled in Colorado Springs, Colorado where he entered the financial services industry and felt like a round peg trying to fit into a triangular hole.

vin, in 2004, he began accompanying men one-on-one on their faith journeys on a part-time basis. By early 2007, Rick recognized that God was calling him to give his life and energies to forming men in their faith. Consequently, in June 2007, he and Dennis Speer founded Brother-to-Brother Ministries; he is now a round peg in a round hole. Among his degrees, Rick holds a Master of Arts in Pastoral Ministry from Aquinas Institute of Theology. Rick and Karen have been married for over 35 years. They have four children, Becca, Kimberly, Ryan, and Kevin, and two granddaughters, Ella and Paige. What is new in my life? The ministry is going well, although, as with all non-profit ministries, donations are down. Along with my ministry, I teach adult faith formation and Christian apologetics at my parish. I am on the diocesan men's ministry committee that plans that annual Rocky Mountain Catholic Men's Conference. The next conference is May 7, 2011. It is an awesome task to work with some of the greatest Catholic speakers in our country. I am also looking for speaking engagements to share my story of the power of forgiveness and how it has changed my life and the lives of others.
