Rick Ciaramitaro
Rick Ciaramitaro graduated from Rhema Bible Training Center in 1980 and moved home to St. Clair Shores, Michigan, where he became the youth pastor at Healing for the Nations Church. A phone call from a small group of Christians in Windsor Ontario…with a request to found a church in their city confirmed a word spoken over Rick while he studied at Rhema…that he would pastor a church in a foreign country.
The rest is history…
