James Dick
Associate Pastor
Fairfield West Baptist Church
Fairfield, OH
Founder/Director
M&M Ministries |
James Dick has been the Associates
Pastor/Children’s Pastor at Fairfield West
Baptist Church for over five years. He was saved
at a young age, as a bus kid, at Cozzadale
Baptist Church in Goshen, Ohio. One Sunday
morning at the age of 18 he surrendered to
preach and left that evening for Bible Baptist
College in East Peoria, IL. After
attending college for six months and working
three jobs, James felt that because of working
so many hours and not having the appropriate
time to study, he believed this must not be his
calling. James came home and spent the
next 14 years being a fast food general manager
at two restaurants. This is where he met
his wife of 18 years, Terri. Five years
later they had a daughter, Bethany, who is now
13. His family came to Fairfield West
Baptist Church in January of 2000 and upon
joining James soon became the Awana Commander
and then later voted in as a deacon. In
2002, the church asked James to become the
Associate Pastor and Church Clerk. It was
at this time James realized that this was his
calling.
James is the founder and director of M & M
Ministries (The Magic is in the Message).
This is a non-profit ministry which is used to
reach boys and girls with the gospel of Jesus
Christ. His daughter, Bethany, and the
Senior Pastor’s son, Tanner Rosenbalm,
participate in this ministry.
