Pastor Rick Donley, a native of Seattle, Washington, has spent the majority of his adult life in the Northwest. He was saved at the age of 10, and at 16 he surrendered to the ministry.

In preparation for ministry, Pastor Donley attended Hyles-Anderson College. It was during this time that he met his future wife, Debbie. They were married in August of 1990. Upon graduation in 1992, the Donleys moved to Spokane, Washington. Over the next 19 years, they dedicated their lives to serving at Gospel Light Baptist Church and Faith Baptist Church, where he served as an assistant pastor as well as the principal of Faith Baptist Academy.

In 2010, Pastor Donley was called to be the Senior Pastor at a church in Oregon, and in April of 2022, the Lord moved him back to Spokane to serve as an Assistant Pastor at Faith Baptist Church.

The Donleys are blessed with four sons, a beautiful daughter-in-law, and two precious grandchildren.
