Rick Greenwade

Website Manager

I control the website so I get to write my own Bio.

Pretty cool eh?

I’m retired but after my time in the Air Force, I spent my entire adult life working with electronics, computers, and mechanical motors.

I also have a lot of experience in audio/video work.

The first time my wife and I walked into The Agape House Church “The Little Church In The Woods” we felt welcomed and at home.

I can honestly say that God’s spirit is alive here.

One of the things I found lacking, as I got to know everyone, was the fact that the church website was completely abandoned.

Having done many websites throughout the years I volunteered to blow the dust off her and bring her up to speed.

We’re getting there.

So anything that comes out wrong, misspelled words, misalignments, etc. you can blame me.

That’s OK because I’ll just blame someone else anyway.

Typical computer guy eh?
