Our Team

Pastor Aric grew up in Pella, IA and felt the call to ministry at a young age. He went to Central College where he met his wife Ellen. They began ministry co-pastoring together at Parkway Community Church (RCA) in Hicksville, NY in 2019.

In his ministry Pastor Aric loves studying scripture with others and spending time with those in the congregation. His heart for ministry is one of presence and connection, loving to help others connect more deeply with their faith. 

In his free time, he enjoys spending time with his wife and daughter, and their dog, Finnegan. Aric is a diehard Cubs fan and Liverpool supporter. He loves cars, golf, and good coffee!
