Senior Pastor Jim Schulz
Jim Schulz grew up in a minister’s home and knew from a very early age that he would one day be in the ministry himself. In 1966, he met Linda Coovert at Glad Tidings Assembly of God (Muncie, Indiana) while visiting during the summer before his senior year of Bible college. They were married in August of the following year (1967 – a year filled with many letters and phone calls).
Jim and Linda pastored in Punta Gorda, Florida for the two years following their wedding, after which time the Lord led them into Alaskan missions. They have ministered the good news of the Gospel to Alaskans in both “Old” and “New” Minto, Nenana, Kotlik, and Kotzebue before moving to Anchorage and beginning work that would reach several areas of the state simultaneously.
