Rich Friesen
​Elementary Teacher
Rich graduated from Ambrose University in 2021 with two degrees, a Bachelor of Education and a Bachelor of Business Administration.  The Lord guided Rich to Red Deer after graduating, teaching grade 2/3 at a small private Christian school for two years.  Rich has a passion for discipling children and ministering to families.  His mission is to show and share the good news of Jesus in all he says and does.

Rich is married to his lovely wife Jessamyn, and they love playing Boggle and Dutch Blitz.  Rich and his wife are members at Deer Park Alliance Church, and they both grew up serving in Alliance churches in their hometowns of Grande Prairie and Innisfail, respectively.  Rich also enjoys the outdoors, running marathons, playing hockey, and really, any sort of physical activity.  
Rich is excited to partner with families in helping their children learn about God’s creation and His love for them through Jesus Christ.
