Pastor Ricky Draper

Jessica and I have been married for over 25 years. The Lord has blessed us with four children – Victoria, Elizabeth, Richard, and Warren.  Jessica and I met at Trinity Baptist College in Jacksonville, FL. I finished my education through Liberty University Online, and Jessica earned a master’s in education degree from Maranatha Baptist University in Wisconsin. Victoria and Elizabeth have both graduated from high school and moved away. Victoria and her husband Ben just had our second grandbaby. We both love being grandparents! Richard graduated from SSHS and is in college. He comes home every weekend to teach the teens. Warren is in 10th grade at SSHS. Jessica teaches at SSMS. I also enjoy getting to drive bus 2518 and meet many students and parents.

God has blessed us here at Providence Baptist Church. We have been here since August 2019. We have gotten to meet and help so many people. I am excited to see what the Lord has planned for our family and church as we continue to serve Him here in this place.

We'd like to meet you. Find out how, where and when we worship. Contact Us
