Meet Our Pastor
For years, Reverend Robert L. Rice and First Lady Evnglst Elaine Tibbs Rice have faithfully led Antioch Cumberland Presbyterian Church in America with love, dedication, and a profound commitment to God’s calling. Reverend Rice is not only a gifted preacher and teacher but also a true servant leader who lives out the gospel in every facet of his life.
Inspired by I Corinthians Chapter 13, Pastor Rice embodies the essence of God’s love—kindness, patience, and selflessness. He provides unwavering support to the congregation during times of joy and sorrow, ensuring that every member feels cared for and valued. His leadership has strengthened our church both spiritually and physically, leading to significant milestones like the acquisition of debt-free properties.
During the challenges of the pandemic, Reverend Rice continued to spread God’s word through online worship, delivering powerful messages that inspire and uplift. His life of faith extends beyond the church walls as a loving husband, father, and grandfather, and as a compassionate neighbor in the Athens, Alabama, community.
If you’re seeking spiritual guidance, prayer, or encouragement, Pastor Rice and First Lady Elaine Tibbs Rice are here to support and uplift you on your journey of faith.
