Pastor Aaron Richert

Pastor Aaron Richert grew up in the mountain town of Big Bear City, California. After high school, he joined the U.S. Army, which brought him to Fairbanks, Alaska. It was there that God changed the direction of his life forever—Aaron was saved, met his wife Karrie, and surrendered to God’s call to ministry.

 

​When his military service ended, Aaron jumped straight into ministry in Southern California while also working on his Bible college studies. For the next ten years, he poured his life into helping three new churches get started.

​

In time, God brought Aaron and his family back to Alaska. After serving in two churches, the Lord made clear the need for a new work in North Pole. Out of that step of faith, Cornerstone Baptist Church was born.

 

Aaron and Karrie are blessed with four wonderful children—Sadie, Jaiden, Tess, and Charlotte—and are passionate about serving the Lord together as a family.
